Hi lybrate-user children during hot summer days prefer liquid food and fruit juices to solids of parents preference. It is not bad. Rather fluids and fruits are the recommended food for children in hot days. But this kind of food habbits should notbe the order the day through out the year. You pls encourage years son to take fresh friuit as a whole instead of juices of high calories with added sugars and syrups. We need to respect the likes and dislikes of children. Avoid squashes during meal time. Coax years child to take some high protein diet like eggs or diary products first with promise that he would be permitted to eat fresh fruits after this. So do not loose heart, be moderate in approach to teach and discilpline your child.
