Worst foods to give kids

1 Chicken Nuggets Any fast food that's breaded and fried is bursting with fat. Nuggets and their dipping sauces also have a lot of sodium, which can contribute to high blood pressure in adults. Don't let your child's taste buds get used to salty foods.

2 Chips
Giving your child a handful of chips with lunch on occasion is fine, but keep in mind that potato chips, corn chips, and cheese puffs are mostly fat, sodium, and empty calories.

3 Doughnuts
Most are packed with artery-clogging saturated fat and trans-fatty acids. An average doughnut also has 200 to 300 calories and few other nutrients.

4 French Fries
It's unfortunate that fries are the most popular vegetable dish in the U.S. Kids love them, but they're extremely high in fat and have few vitamins. If your children clamor for them at the drive-through, at least stick with a small portion.

5 Fruit Leather
Most rolled-up dried fruit has a dab of fruit, a teeny bit of fiber, few vitamins except those that have been added, and lots of sugar. Serve fresh fruit instead.

6 Hot Dogs
Regular dogs are high in fat (13 or more grams per serving), have lots of sodium, and don't provide much protein for the calories. They're also a choking hazard for children 3 and under. Serve only occasionally, look for lower-fat brands (try turkey dogs), and cut into very small pieces for young children.
7 Juice-flavored Drinks
Most are no more than 10 percent juice; the rest is water and sweeteners. (Don't be fooled by 100 percent juices made from grape, pear, or apple concentrate. Much of the nutrition has been removed from concentrates.)

8 Prepackaged Lunches
Sure, they're convenient, but they also tend to be high in saturated fat and sodium (more than 1,200 milligrams in some, about half the recommended daily max) and packed with sugary treats. Most also are nutritionally unbalanced, because they contain no fruits or vegetables.

One of my sons has Aspergers with a Sensory Processing Disorder. He don't eat any fruit or vegetables. Cereals, cereal bars, eggs(only scambled), peanut butter(only on toast) and recently he has been eating KD. I would force him but any other food or smell will make him puke, I often wonder how many parents would think I am a horrible Mom because of this.?

Thanks. It's actually the hardest thing I've ever dealt with. I have to cook two supper every day. I hate it. He does drink what we call doctors drinks, it's a meal in a can type thing.
