About This Quote

[…] but she cannot make him eat, like you. If someone is not willing to eat what you bring them, they can't be forced to. They don't want to because they know they wouldn't like it. If someone has a disability and can't eat or drink, then forcing them to is cruel and shows that you don't care about them.
