"Parents are not to blame for "fussy eating", new large study suggests fussy eating tendencies are mostly down to genetics rather than parenting styles". Great work by @ClareHLlewellyn, @Zeynep__Nas@ali_fildes @alicekini et al

1. Variation in fussy eating is not so much a matter of parenting but may be largely due to the genetic differences between children 🧬🧒
2. The study also points to the supporting role of the environment in shaping fussy eating, especially in toddlerhood 👶
🚨 NEW PAPER OUT IN @TheJCPP 🚨
Using @GeminiResearch data, we found that fussy eating is stable across childhood and has a significant genetic influence overtime🧬
