Great post. I’m not a food briber but do ask that they take 1 bite of something new.

I had to resort to bribing my daughter to eat because she wasn’t eating, was drinking Pediasure and was losing weight. Now, she tastes new things and has a healthy appetite.

Well, I’m not a mom yet. So, I hate to say what I will or won’t do when I don’t really know. Haha! However, I don’t much care about the idea to bribe my children.

I’ve got a kid with a genetic disorder that gets extremely ill when she doesn’t eat or drink. If ketchup or toys save me an ER visit and possible hospital stay, I’m for it.

Ketchup on everything? No way. And I will not buy them anything to get them to eat their food. They either eat whats there or dont eat at all til the next meal. Im with you Cindy I really disagree with a lot that these moms suggest.

Um, bribing kids with toys to eat dinner? I don’t think so. Not in my house. You either eat dinner when we do or you go hungry. End of story. 🙂

We sit as a family to eat too! It’s a rule. And, the kids asked if they can be excused from the table.
