[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Um yeah tweens want to go to Starbucks even if they had it yesterday. You need to manage their expectations like the PP suggested above. [/quote] Op here. So if I know we will be passing a Starbucks (basically guaranteed if we’re going anywhere), I should set out beforehand that we won’t be going there or any other fast food? I’m genuinely trying to figure this out because I resent being viewed as the Bank of Auntie and the continuous asking/demanding. We are going to do an activity this evening and there will be lots of things they will want to buy/eat. Would I just clarify beforehand that I’m going to buy everyone ice cream/dessert and if they want anything else then they need to bring their own money (I know they each have some)? What if they pout/whine? Do I just kind of ignore it. Sorry for all the questions, toddler/preschool boys are truly a different animal (with their own problems!).[/quote]
