[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I'm not sure why it's so hard to limit McDs or TV such that saying "no" makes the child feel deprived. Habits are habits. We generally don't go to McDs, so the kids don't ask. They do love fries, of course, and ask for it even when we go out... and we limit, saying "after you eat your veg, you can have more". It's routine. The kids know the drill, and we adults follow our own rules. TV: Give the kids some limited choices, and it's a done deal. If you don't have TV in the house, then it's not even an option. No biggie.[/quote]
