Holiday pressure and Santa Claus open Charlotte Snyder's December 2025 live Q&A, held just before the holidays. The rest is about food, for parents of babies and young children: a 1-year-old who isn't interested in meals, mealtimes and drinks at age one, and how to tell how much a child actually ate. It closes with when to worry about a child's growth.
