(Scarlet) My son is driving me crazy with food

My son was the biggest eater. He would eat so many meals plus snacks and light bits but now I can’t even get him to eat his breakfast it’s driving me crazy. If he even was to eat a smaller portion then fine! I cut down the portion sizes but he won’t eat anything more than 3 spoon fulls … he is picking to much during the day and I feel this is contributing to it. Now I live with my in-laws who do what they want when I comes to my son (we are moving this weekend so I can’t wait to start sticking to one rule because he has one rule with us and another with them if that makes sense) but anyway Iv told them! Absolutely nothing to eat other than his meals and it would be good to see if they listen to our rule or not because they never really do.

My son is 1 1/2 and my son does the exact same thing with pasta. I’m not sure what is going on. He has most of his teeth. I think he needs two more teeth at the front. I don’t think it’s teething. He’s never had an issue with it. He is also misbehaving in my opinion. He has a lot of bad habits given to him by his grandparents one rule with them and another with us they don’t listen to us I am hoping he will become better in the next few weeks as we are moving out of the house where his grandparents live and I’m not giving him any snacks in between his meals now so I want him to eat properly. I had the opinion of as long as he eating but he is not eating the right things and I’m very frustrated with parenting at the moment. @Danielle

I find myself to be an easy-going parent but also strict and firm when I need to be but I have now learned due to his behaviour that I need to be a little bit more firmer when it comes to our rules with everyone abiding by them because at the end of the day it’s us mums that have to deal with the fallout of their bad behaviour and stressful behaviour I can’t be on a phone call without my son trying to grab the phone and if I don’t give it to him, he throws a massive tantrum. I’m brushing my teeth he does the exact same thing if he doesn’t get what he wants with anything he throws a tantrum and I understand it’s him growing up and the terrible twos, but I am going to try and put an end to all the misbehaving because it’s coming to the stage where I can’t even go to a food shop without him trying to get out of the buggy and him screaming if I don’t leave him out and he is not old enough to understand hold my hand and walk with me
