[quote=Anonymous]My advice is to tell your kids they need to say, "Let me check with my mom and dad." That way, your kids AND the relatives get the message that your kids cannot just be offered food. Sometimes, say yes. Like especially if it's something reasonable, like a bag of Goldfish in the afternoon, well before dinner time. Then, you'll be able to say no without looking like a bad guy to your kids, because sometimes you say yes. This also gives you room to say, "You may have those gummy bears after dinner, as dessert. You can choose that, or the cupcakes that grandma has." [/quote]
