My husband just admonished our daughter for picking up and eating her fish sticks with her fingers. I think they are "finger food".
What do you think?

i think your husband is a bit "touchy" about eating what are usually considered finger foods. my kids hate fish sticks..but they do eat chicken nuggets, which are similar..and that is what is FUN about it. they LOVE to eat with their hands. why is that such a problem for your husband?
young children's hands are not as dexterous as adults hands. they still struggle with writing, and holding things. eating with her hands is probably EASIER for her than a fork. practicing with a fork or spoon is great, but a child must be allowed a break. sometimes the strain of it hurts their little finger after awhile. after all i'd be more concerned that she DOES eat...than HOW she eats it.
tell your hubby to CHILL OUT! she's a kid! let her eat her fish sticks the way she'd like. if he is THAT picky about fish sticks...I'd HATE to see what he does with her school work, and hand writing, etc.

Anything with STICKS in it is finger food. The whole reason they made fish sticks was so that they could be conveniently eaten by young children without utensils. Its how they converted the fish filet in a more childish manner so its fun to eat, duhh. Let her eat everything with her fingers for dexterity i say

Yeah, I do all the time. But I'm probably going to have to cut it out as my Oscar is getting a bit big and will be able to draw blood soon if he mistakes my finger for an earthworm. Ian

Fish Sticks--last time I checked--was not Filet Mignon
Tell your husband to chill out--they are FINGER FOODS!

I think that your husband needs to calm down. They are totally finger food, and I think that if you let him get such a dominating attitude over something as simple as this, he's going to get power-mad and stop at nothing. Let her eat with her hands, and just to let him rediscover how fun it is to eat with fingers, take his cutlery away from him.
Good luck!

Fish sticks are finger food.
I've never in my life seen anyone use silverware to eat fish sticks.

hey hun....i think hubby needs to lay of a bit don't you?...shes only little once and there's a lot more important things to correct her on then how she eats her food.... you didn't state it but i was just wondering if he does this over perry stuff does he try to correct her over every thing she does?....i know parents only wont the best for their kids but if you push and over correct them to hard it could form a since of insecurity and self doubt....so tell him ta love er' more and criticize less...love daisy
