Bring on the mutiny then. My DS will eat me out of house and home if I let him now. Not all children listen to their own cues. As I mentioned, fruit and veggies are unlimited but everything else is limited. If they are hungry they can get all the fruits and veggies they want. All kids are different. So far it has worked great. I am very good with feeding a well balanced meal though.
But your son is 2. I am very good with a well balanced meal also, but a couple extra pieces of fruit for a 5'10" boy that is still growing doesn't cut it. I remember when my DS was 2. I had to limit his bread and other things, now, he is an eating machine. A 2 year old is not a teen.
