I think bad parenting is why a lot of people turn out to be picky eaters

Growing up my parents weren’t strict about what I ate and we always had junk food in the house. They did give me a big variety of foods when I was a baby/toddler and that very much made me afraid to try new foods later on. There was one point where they did try to get me to eat things (Maybe between the ages of 6-10) they would try to get me to try new things and when I didn’t want to they would full on yell at me and get angry because I wouldn’t try it

Today I definitely have gotten better with trying new things, but also I have struggled with an eating disorder for a few years now. I definitely think if I was introduced to food in a healthier way and taught a healthier mindset early on, then I wouldn’t be struggling today
