​Mom needs take a few courses on child development or read a few books on the topic and learn how to engage with an angry human being, especially one who is young and is learning how to remain rational when angry.

Somewhere someone is thinking to themselves that this child is a spoiled entitled brat who wants to have her own way for having a temper tantrum.  The child in the video is most likely a normal child who wants something that she cannot have, and denying the request for the gum, while explaining why she cannot have the gum and not giving in to the angry demands is part of the learning (discipline) process for young children.  Children do not come into this world “knowing better”.  Children come into this world knowing nothing more than how to eat.  Babies can literally forget to breathe.  Over the course of years and months they learn the skills needed to survive in this world, and that includes managing their own behaviors which is acquired through the practice and trial and error of co-regulating behaviors with an adult who has placed their ego aside and is not offended by the actions of someone who literally does not know better.

2) Cook everything possible in cast iron cookware.  Acidic sauces are ideal.  The longer the food is in the pot during cooking, the higher the iron transfer.  Consider turning down the temperature and cooking your food low and slow to increase the amount of time that the food is in the pot or pan.

3) Dried Prunes and dried apricots are also good for increasing iron, consider adding those to your son's diet.

4) Continue to offer iron rich green vegetables with each meal.  Don't force your son to eat them, just offer.  Make a game of it.  Challenge him to see who can eat a tablespoonful first, because a tablespoon is just a little less than what he needs, but it is a great start to introducing foods that he might not like.

I was hesitant to use an iron supplement, because they all seemed to contain ingredients that weren't clean.  Talking with my pharmacist reassured me that the iron in infant cereal was a great alternative. 

Keep in mind that you want to add incremental amounts of iron to your son's diet.  Think about what you add over the course of a day, and a week, and a month.  Don't fixate on each meal.   Good luck, and always consider consulting a pediatric nutritionist if you have any concerns.

Once upon a time I blogged my son's meal's, here is a link if you would like a tiny bit of inspiration. 

Also, I receive a small commission if you purchase anything trough the amazon links posted above.

I used a small skillet when cooking my son's foods separately or when scalding breastmilk or other liquids to drink.  You want to expose as much of te surface of the foods to the pot as possible.
