I have one 12 year old who won't eat the health restoring stew.
Just a fussy eater? :)I drag him to the stew pot and he just won't eat - "Nothing".
Is this common/normal? He will eat at the food bin and get "healthier" but not Restored, like everyone else.

The "hot spot" for children (and nursing moms) is a little smaller than it is for everyone else. Try dropping him in slightly different places near the cauldron.

Yeah, I tried dropping him everywhere - he still wouldn't eat there. Since then, without my help!, he got better. lol

I've had a terrible time getting children to eat stews, Just like real ones! You CAN do it but as mentioned, you have to fiddle with them and drop several times to get the right spot. If you've got a lot of villagers milling around it is even tougher to get them in the right zone. When I have a weakened child and can't get them onto the stew, I feed them at the food bin instead. That always helps if you have food.

I haven't had too much trouble - what I do is aim so their head is directly on/above the stewpot, rather than their feet.
