How do you get your toddlers to eat?

     I have a 21-month old daughter who loves to feed herself. The only problem is that every where gets messy afterwards. Do I force myself on her or let her do her thing?  I think it's better that she gets the food in her tummy even though all table manners or protocols are not observed.

     What do you do with your toddler? Do you let him/her be? Or not?
