I work in a bakery and the parents always ask their kids what they want and I mean ages of 1-5 and ofc the kid will always go to the cake section and choose one.
@ryaneliasbaker Says:
Yeah, I do feel like there’s a happy medium to be found here… maybe by helping your children decide what to eat rather than giving them or yourself total power over it. I don’t think it’s as crucial a teaching moment or parenting element as this speaker implies.

I agree with her, but I don't think a white head master could get away with this. He'd be called racist. I do disagree with her vegetarian only decision.
@AnastasiaHenley-oc5xs Says:
I agree. This makes me crazy when I watch these young weak parents negotiating with their kids, asking their permission. My parents never asked our permission to buy anything or cook anything. Mom made dinner and the whole family ate together and were damn greatful for our meal. Thanks mom 💗 dad. You made me strong and humble.
@sp3g56 Says:
I like my kids as human beings. I don’t want them to feel like their opinion never matters. I’m not raising them to be doormats like I was.
@Ttyl_lukey Says:
I agree with you
@ooolll8902 Says:
If your family has good amount of resouces, give your children more choices as long as they learn to be responsible and accept consequences for their choices. If your family is tight on money or time, then your kids have to learn to suck it up more often. Whatever works for your family. As long as parents are loving and supportive, kids will be fine.

@jaksls Says:
Really think she is totally going to one side of the spectrum without good reason, other than to make things easier for the parent. It is the easiest thing in the world to just tell children "this is the way it is and you get no choice". Surely there is a middle ground. When you are an adult you do have some degree of choice, although you dont always get what you want. You dont have to be a dictator for your children to be well behaved and turn into good people.
@Meteor_pending Says:
YES. Children only have the choices you give them.

If you tried to make me eat onions i would kick off. We are allowed not to like certain foods.

@carathorsven3326 Says:
Oh yeah let's tell the children if you don't like it suck it up and then let's wonder why we have a society of people who put up with shitty conditions and feel disempiwered to change them.
@carathorsven3326 Says:
What a terrible approach. Children deserve respect and consideration. They don't need to be catered to at every whim but there is literally nothing wrong with asking your child what they like. My child requests food like dried salmon and seaweed at the grocery store and I'm damn well okay with that 😂
We need to not swing the pendulum. Don't be a dictator, but also don't put them on a pedestal. Just have a relationship.
@SYA357 Says:
You can still give them relative choice at home. You can pick 1 thing that you like, 1 that your spouse likes, and the kid can pick a third. Why should childhood necessarily mean not having a choice and having to suck it up? Have you ever thought about how many food intolerances get missed that way? How many unnecessary permanent dislikes against certain foods are fostered this way? At least don't force them to eat it, please.
@j.a.0088 Says:
If you ask your child what would you like to eat it will always be pizza , chips 🍟 and all the rest of junk food . Never broccoli 🥦 or spinach . So you have to decide , and raise children to eat healthy it will stay with them all their life .

@Seraphielium Says:
Treat others how you wish to be treated, this is unsafe and absurd to treat your child like this, you’re teaching them to blindly follow, don’t ask questions and just do it, no arguments or discussions and decisions. Instead teach them to think critically and for themselves
@markushahn9123 Says:
Isn’t there something between this extremes.
Ask Children about everything decision is very dumb.
On the other side my son never refused to eat what I cooked, because of clever not harsh education.
This mother is very backwards

@Lionhearted626 Says:
Honestly isn’t that what you’re supposed to do for your kid as a kindness? They have the rest of their lives to think and make decisions. Right now they don’t have to. I can decide for them. They don’t even know what they’re looking at on the shelf anyway.
@susanwright4414 Says:
Buy everything you want them to eat, and let them choose some things too. I treat people ( including my daughter) how I'd like to be treated...😅

@dianelogan8822 Says:
People need to realize that their childhood experiences have nothing to do with childrens experiences today.
How are kids supposed to learn anything on their own if parents are dictating everything?
What about experiences and maybe learning something from your child?

@DD_Dux Says:
I think it’s important to do both ur kid is not the center of attention but involving them is great like what whould u like to eat at lunch maybe we can get it or what kind of snaks do u want I find ppl who don’t let there children participate always ask why there teenagers aren’t involved
@jchomedog2887 Says:
Food is a privilege. People should be grateful to eat anything that is in front of them. Unless they’re allergic. This is me speaking from having grown up from poverty in a third world orphanage and having served in the military. Be grateful to eat food.

@michaelormond8511 Says:
Whats wrong with asking kids what they want to eat it doesn't mean you let them have only sugar but nothing wrong with finding out what healthy options they like and maybe introduce them to something new that is similar to what you already like !!! We want our children to know that they matter at the same time sometimes life sucks and you eat what you get served because thats what i would like to eat tonight as long as most all of it is healthy and meat then your kids will be better for it!!! You show them the way you dont just say suck it up because that is force and nothing good comes by force when your talking about yoyr children??? Why do people think that loveing something and making them feel special has anything to do with just telling your kids what to do when they become old enough to know what they like and dislike how become what they want should be any differnt then what i want??? But also only thinking of them and what they want forgoing all others and there health is just not away to show them either!!! Balance is key and Jesus love is that balance!!! May God bless all who read this... One love is Jesus 🙏 ❤

Children also develop a will of their own and if this woman had been raised as she thinks it is right here, she would hardly be able to write out her stupid opinion loudly now...

I would hate you to be my mother. Every kidd is different every one is allowed a bit of a choice,
@thulwane6712 Says:
I think I understand this so much.. you are teaching a child to have a sense of gratitude towards everything they receive because there are kids with no food or even the option of variety. I was raised this way as I learnt to appreciate what was on the table.

@mohammedalaskar6822 Says:
So why it's OK for grown ups to eat whatever they want but not the children?
@mohammedalaskar6822 Says:
Wrong. I was a selective eater since I was a child and no one could force me to eat what I don't want to eat no matter how much they starved me.
@azaemogirl1572 Says:
Well its not wrong to ask if there is a dish they want to eat sometimes just not everyday. Ppl should try to make their kid finish the plate tho, its nog barbaric to make them do that definetely not cook a different meal...
@mermish4 Says:
Disagree. My 1 year old developed a food aversion from being forced to eat things he didnt like. He ended up being hospitalised for failure to gain weight.
