[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing I never do is eat my kids candy. My mom used to eat all my Halloween candy every year— literally gorge herself after I went to bed on Halloween night, and I would wake up to see nothing but bad candy left. It was so traumatizing.[/quote]
Lol. We must be the same generation. My mom also would nibble away at my Easter bunny every year and it really upset me. When I was maybe 5 I took my bunny to bed with me, determined to protect what was mine. I still remember the confusion and horror of waking up to find my leg smothered in melted chocolate bunny. However my mom was much more considerate thenceforth after having to do that laundry! (I love my mom, she is awesome and fully accepted her role in the making of that disaster. :) )

To the point of this thread, I generally let DD eat what she wants. We can do that because she's a good self -regulator. Definitely don't switch out/toss candy as a general rule (though at some point the dregs get thrown away)! [/quote]
