[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We do have ice cream and candy in the house and have it as a treat, but don't do dessert after dinner. I would rather my child just have her sweets when she craves them than get into all kinds of negotiations about dinner and dessert.[/quote] I dont negotiate. You need to eat your age in bites of the main food plus your fruit/veggie to get dessert. Its not a negotiation its the same every meal. Take it or leave it.[/quote] I can't even imagine having such a strong policy in place. Do you not have any dinner conversation? There is no way I could enjoy my meal while trying to keep track of how many bite of the main food had been consumed? I want family dinners to be relaxed and enjoyable so my kids can open up and talk about their day. It seems as though that would be impossible if each person is keeping track of their bites of the main food. [/quote]
