I guess this is why I don’t have kids, because my response would be, “okay, bitch, go hungry.”
So when do i get the morgan freeman audiobook version?
That’s pretty much the best approach; they’ll eat eventually.
I liked it better when “Fuck” was considered a pretty nasty word and implied a great degree of emphasis. Now it’s like saying hello.
You want to bet?
I once went four days without eating when I was 3, with my mum trying to give me the same meal every time. I still have an automatic vomit reaction when i try to eat any boiled green vegetable, no matter how well prepared it is.
I found that the best way to get my kids to eat broccoli is to call them “dinosaur trees.”
You would be shocked by the sheer bloody-mindedness of a 3 year old. You think a mere few days of hunger is a problem when the alternative is broccoli? or, god forbid, ASPARAGUS?
All non-parents think they won’t crack. They all do, eventually.
Because: Lemurs
…aaaaaand, on the fifth day, what?
Or the spouse does, leaving the other to gnash their teeth.
We introduced our son to the widest range of foods that we could while he was still young enough to not give a crap what was put in front of him. The only things we know of that he really doesn’t like are chicken and spicy hot stuff.
True: you cannot out-stubborn a toddler.
You do not like green eggs and ham?
Please tell me Samuel L. Jackson will record the audio book of this one too.
Also I love that breakfast consists of a plate of toast, sausage, huevos rancheros, and, um, gumdrops? With a bowl of Cheerios. Is this a child or a hobbit?
no, some of em wont.
ask me how i know? 8 years later, every meal is an hour long fight, and if he does NOT eat, maybe 3 meals in a row? it’s off to the ER for an IV.
theoretically both kids do not like “spicy” food, but my daughter loves smoked pepperoni.
My son, despite loving ham, turkey, and dripping-red-roast-beef as a solid-food-introducing baby, now subsists on bread, cheese, noodles, cheesy noodles, jelly sandwiches, and "burgers – which are buns with cheese “no onions or pickles or meat” as he says. :::sigh:::
that said, the book looks hilarious, and I will soo totally buy it.
Eh. Some things are not improved by a sequel.
I’m bored
but I don’t want to do that
My mum gave in, in a way. I had a month of bland food and no treats as punishment, but I didn’t have to eat the boiled veg.
