| Jun 20, 2011 at 7:17 | comment | added | Corvus Melori | I disagree strongly with the notion that a child doesn't need anything other than breastmilk or formula before 1 year. What about the need to explore different tastes and smells to stimulate the senses? What about the need to develop good habits of eating vegetables? Bitter tastes take time to develop; at 6 months my baby would just spit things out, but at 12 months, she'd throw them at you. And she has a pretty impressive arm. The exact time should be up to the parent, but with the knowledge that the closer they get to toddlerhood, the more stubborn they get! | |
