Especially when the child seems thin, they fear that a deficient feeding is reason: by constructing the curve of growth of the child, it is easily possible to prove that he is not so thin as this and that his meals are very rather rich to make him grow normally. Furthermore. I feeding can be an irr quli re in some periods: having little eaten during one or two meals (and tolerably worried his parents), I' child is going to make up for it the following day (no child forgets to eat for a long time).

It happens however that some people, and often the thinnest, eat really little at table (and in more they are often the most difficult children): it is therefore necessary to conclude from it that they find their food elsewhere, that is to say between meals. Habit to eat between meals makes run the risk of food rocking and is not very nice for the home life.
