The parent is ultimately the one responsible for the child - including their
nutrition. If a child wanted to play with knives, a parent wouldn't let
them for their own good. The same goes with food, just because a child
*wants* to eat nothing but junk - the parent should still -not let them- and
be responsible for their nutrition.

A lot of kids seem to think they should be able to eat only their favourite
foods. None of us eat only our favourites all the time - they're for the
special occasions. There's a huge range of foods between the favourites and
really hated.
