[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mom would go to the grocery store Saturday morning and bring back donuts. More than enough for everyone. Whoever was still sleeping was not woken up or saved a donut. Everyone else ate 2 or 3 each until all were gone.[/quote] My DH and I both had this experience growing up. Sure, you snooze, you lose, but it’s also sad as a kid to be reminded constantly that no one is going to go out of their way to think of you or do something small for you like save a donut. (And it happened with way more than donuts). So we don’t have the issue raised by this thread. We always ask before eating the last of something whether anyone else especially wanted it. We do it to be kind.[/quote] Your mom was probably incentivizing people to wake up. How long did it take you to figure that out?[/quote]
