[quote=Anonymous]My son is a tween but has always ALWAYS had a huge sweet tooth. He also loves fruits and veggies and breads and isn't a big fan of fatty or bad for you main-foods in general. If we have blackberries and sour patch kids, he eats the blackberries first...then the candy...then drinks a glass of milk with a piece of bread when I gripe hime to get some real nutrition and calls it lunch. He will happily eat salad or lentil soup or a turkey sandwich or homemade mac and cheese or chili if I make it (and sometimes he does), but 99% of the time he just loves candy and soda. Thin, athletic, smart as a whip, and mostly a good kid, I so sometimes see candy wrappers around the house in odd places even though we do not restrict or shame, and that seems odd to me. We do often say "Jeez - enough candy today!" or "No soda today, drink a Sprindrift" and he does. Some kids just have a strong "treat yourself" personality. Mine definitely does. [/quote]
