My mother had this problem with me, I would eat but not at the
correct time. She consulted our
family doctor, an
old school medical man.
"He won't eat" she complained
"He seems quite big considering he doesn't eat at all"
"Well, he eats, but not like he should"
"Oh, so he doesn't eat when you expect him to"
"No, sometimes he'll eat a lot, sometimes hardly any."
"A common problem"
"What should I do?"
"I'd highly recommend feeding him when he gets hungry"
