[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have food or drink (whatever it is) and your family or guests are there, you should offer to share. This is why I often save my treats to eat after they are asleep. I would just skip SB if my kids are present but I don’t want to buy for them.[/quote]

Coffee isn’t a treat. It’s for adults like alcohol. I made it abundant clear since my kids were toddlers: no caffeinated drinks until you’re done growing. That’s how I grew up and I don’t see any problem with it. So no, I’m not buying you any sugary garbage just because I’m getting my coffee. [/quote]

Right.  Totally agree.  Now, if I stop for a coffee and my kid wanted an herbal tea or a white milk, sure.  But I’m not buying them processed garbage because I stopped for a black coffee. [/quote]

The irony in that you won't give your kid "processed garbage" but act like Starbucks black coffee is some natural elixir.  You probably also buy "organic" at the food store and think you are super healthy[/quote]
