Doc, how much milk is too much? My toddler loves milk, but I worry it’s stopping them from eating proper meals. My kid is 23 months old

Psychological Perspective of the Child: Excessive milk intake can fill a toddler up, reducing their hunger for solid foods. They may prefer milk because it’s familiar and comforting. Psychological Guidance for Parents: Gradually reduce milk intake by offering it at structured times instead of on demand. Encourage balanced meals and provide water as an alternative. Maintain consistency without making it feel like a deprivation.
