So yeah, not on weekends that my beautiful autistic child is there.
I have a friend that has an autistic child... That kid is one of the sweetest people I know.0 -

Bingo!!!
Jeez I wish I had come up with the name for this diet, the ones that did must be raking in the money - and good luck to them.

Oh wow, not me, I want my kids to have a love of all foods. I want them to know that nothing is off limits and that they can eat all foods in moderation so that when they are choosing school lunch they can feel free to have a corn dog, but they will likely choose carrots and apples to go with it and after dinner we might all have ice cream! I don't want my kids to be restricted from foods now, I fear that may be a short cut to disordered eating in the future...

We're not haters. Just trying to make the point that you can do that without restricting certain foods or food groups.
I think someone should be notifying social services on the OP. I think it's negligent of the OP to be feeding their kids healthy food - I mean these are kids they have a right to choose their own diet.
Who the hell does the OP think they are deciding what food their kids should be eating? What next, they're gonna decide what clothes they can wear. pfft
I was seriously considering getting my son to eat his veg the other day, but in the end couldn't face the shame of feeding him food that has micro nutrients, so I gave him a kinder egg instead - win!
Yet again, another strawman argument... Taking things to extremes to make a point. Not once did any one of us say that she shouldn't feed her kids food with micronutrional value.
Not but most of you are saying she shouldn't have freedom to feed her kids what she wants (based on the fact the food is healthy). I take it your kids choose their own menu each day?
Or do you decide for them?

I have no idea...I have to assume not...but the ground deer meat sure fits the paleo thing...and that's what I meant by "now that's paleo"

Any time I've ever baby sat a relative's kid/kids, I'd let them have boxed mac n cheese or chicken nuggets if they wanted it... But that's not to say I didn't give them some broccoli or some other vegetable to go with it.0 -

So you don't have kids or any real experience of bringing kids up on a healthy diet.
Well thank you for your valuable insights and comments on this thread then!

I was raised in the 1970s on a steady diet of breaded food, butter, Crisco, and bacon grease (dad is from the south) - I crack up that anyone would think it is cruel to feed your kids healthy meats and veges, Paleo would have saved many a family member of mine from heart catheters, high blood pressure, and type II diabetes

lol please..
you can do that without whichever variant of "paleo" you are on ...
Quick questions - what is unhealthy about a paleo diet for kids?
probably over a million food combinations to choose from. Doesn't eliminate any foods which are essential to a healthy diet!
never said that.
I said you can accomplish the same without doing paleo.
and certain variants of paleo do restrict foods, unless you are now saying that they do not?0 -
Are you just arguing that you don't like the name? If you were to remove the word "paleo" from the diet along with the ancient-man philosophy, it's a pretty flexible dietary style that allows the gamut of low carb to high carb, vegetarian, etc. It ends up just focusing on whole foods and limiting starches and grains.
Doesn't seem too far out there for me if it was called something else.
Two reasons it is ridiculous;
1. It has absolutely nothing to do with how paleolithic people ate.
So, the answer is "yes, it's the name that bothers me"?2. Everybody has their own version of it. person X cant eat bread, but they can eat sweet potatoes; however, person A can't eat dairy, but person B eats greek yogurt...so basically if Jupiter and Mars are aligned eat X way, but if earth and the sun are in equinox then eat Y way ...
So what?
because it is a Joke.
if it is not based on how Paleolithich people ate why call it that? Oh, I know because it is a catch phrase that will sell books and make people money.
The "so what" is that people actually think they are somehow going to be healthier by eating how paleo people ate, so that is the so what...
You seem to be an expert - what exactly did they eat?

paleo people ground up dear meat....hmmm interesting..
I believe they ate it raw after tracking said deer down..
given that early paleolithic people probably did not have advanced hunting tools, they probably found already dead deer and ate that...I doubt there was any grinding up of deer meat involved..0 -

It kinda does based on your 'apparent' lack of knowledge of feeding kids healthy diets, as well as your lack of experience.

this is from dragonwolfs post a few pages back:
"Cordain Paleo -- those who follow Cordain's guidelines. Lean meats, fruits, vegetables. No dairy, legumes, or grains at all. Macros don't matter too much here for most people, though Cordain's stance on saturated fats falls more on the USDA/AHA side of the fence. Consider these the standard vegans."
^ so apparently that strain of paleo eliminates dairy, legumes, and grains..

oh and is the whole "if you don't have kids, don't respond" thing on the bingo cards? if not, it should be. this isn't the first thread that dopey statement has been made in.
I've found in my experience of 14 years of raising kids and having lived in SoCal, Washington State, Oregon, Mississippi and Maryland that the VAST majority of parents of children are complete and utter fucktards. Not good at parenting really at all. Just having a kid does not make you smart about raising kids. Actually that kind of thinking is embarrassing.
Before you splodey head on me, I'm not a great parent. But what I am is pragmatic and realistic. I try and learn about being the best parent I can be, I never fall for fad parenting *kitten* (even if...actually no especially if I agree with it), and it continues to be the most stressful thing that I deal with on a daily basis. It's hard. And parenting gets a bad rep from people who "think" that because they popped out some womb turd it makes them "smart" about it.
