My kids wouldn't go for alot of that. I would never let them not eat. I just couldn't do that.
I think some of it is me. I am so wound up from constantly discipling that I can't enjoy them anymore. I give an inch and they take a mile. I never wanted to be that parent that just "gave up" and said "do what you want". But for me I am constantly saying "don't do that", "get your hands out of your mouth", "walk right and quit acting like a two year old! (to my eight year old).
My eight year old has been acting goofy as he**. It's like he's two and in a candy store. WTF.
ugh.
