[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not on a regular basis. He knows what dessert is, and knows it's a special treat. But there's no expectation of dessert every night after dinner.[/quote] +1 If anything we might give them some fruit but cookies/cakes are only an occasional treat. I was puzzled about this in the other thread as well. Are people giving the kids dessert just so that they have this version of "family dinner" with the dad? Seems like a bad habit to start.[/quote] I didn't read the other thread, but it sounds fine to me if the choice is between "no family dinner" and "family sitting around the table and eating together." Why is this a bad habit? Especially if dessert is just some fruit or yogurt? [/quote] In my house it would be bad because my kids (or at least one of them) would not eat her dinner and would just hold out for dessert, esp. if it was fruit and yogurt.[/quote]
