[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]A 9 year old taking candy is kind of normal so that would not concern me.[/b] I would just have grandma put it away next time. I would just keep offering fruit and healthy between meal snacks. I would not talk to her about eating too much if it is healthy food.[/quote] Not normal at all. Only the kids who are shamed about food are hiding sweets. [/quote] The hiding isn’t normal, but if a grandmother put out an inviting bowl of candy for a grandchild visit, most kids would take and eat some. My kids would certainly do so, it wouldn’t occur to them that it wasn’t for them. They’d throw the wrappers in the trash though. [/quote]
