who have questions and want to know more about vaccines and the illnesses they can prevent.

One of the common issues we hear from parents is how their child is a ‘Picky Eater’. ‘No matter what I give him, all he wants is mac and cheese and chips! And he WON’T eat vegetables!’ The New York Times has a good series of posts here on their Motherlode blog about how to approach this common issue.
