So I'm sorry I don't have any solution as of now. This is new to us. But we don't give in. And she knows there are punishments. So that's a start.

He would often shield his eyes with his hand when he got into trouble at the table, then peek through his fingers when he thought no one was watching. Now, he has a little boy who does the same thing!

Though here, my oldest begun it and my other two have followed in his footsteps. It happens on nights I try new recipes that in all honesty could be questionable, and even on nights that I make something they have eaten before and loved. My kids could eat their dinner and be back outside playing in less time than they spend Beth Doda ~ disneymom2jhehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10452850705045246834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7060436128493311648.post-82494938959156175402012-03-23T08:52:39.085-04:002012-03-23T08:52:39.085-04:00Sometimes I think it's my cooking... but My Di...Sometimes I think it's my cooking... but My Director says it's delicious.
