Does picky eating show up in your family? How do you know when it's a problem? Today we hear from child feeding expert Katja Rowell, MD, family doctor turned feeding therapy specialist who has worked with hundreds of families struggling with the extremes of the picky eating continuum. We talk about how to recognize extreme picky eating and what might be more typical picky eating, and what to do if you believe your family needs more support.
