'#BRAINYCAMPUS  TITLE:   5 Food Common Mistakes Parents Make!  DESCRIPTION:  KEEPING KIDS OUT OF THE KITCHEN  Having kids around knives and boiling food can be a hazard but a Columbia University study suggests that involving children in meal preparation encourages them to try new foods.  PRESSURING THEM TO TAKE A BITE  Demanding that a child eat at least one bite of everything is likely to backfire. Pennsylvania State University researchers found that children expressed dislike for foods they had been rewarded for eating and were less likely to eat them in the long run. The better approach is to offer food but stay neutral.  KEEPING \'GOOD STUFF\' OUT OF REACH  Parents worry that children will binge on treats, so they often put them out of sight. Another Penn State study shows that consumption for food like cookies tripled when it was treated as a forbidden treat. The lesson: Keep only healthy snacks around the house and give children free access to food cabinets.  DIETING IN FRONT OF CHILDREN  Kids are tuned to their parents\' eating preferences and are far more likely to try foods if they see their mother or father eating them. A Rutgers study found that preschoolers tended to like or reject the same fruits and vegetables their parents liked or didn\'t like.  GIVING UP TOO SOON  Susan B Roberts, nutritionist and author, suggests a \'rule of 15\' - putting a food on the table at least 15 times to see if a child will accept it.
