and if you give them something messy like a stew or something saucy and they aren't so good with utensils yet, do you spoon feed them or let them just do the best they can?

DD is 15 months. She takes about 10 minutes to eat. I am really trying to get her to use the spoon...she does pretty well with yogurt, but today I gave her a "lil'entree'" and she was a MESS....it was easier just to feed her myself.
