Ah, food, kids and parents. What a complicated trio it is. In some cases, kids refuse to eat anything but buttered rolls. In others, they get more food on the floor than in their mouths. And, perhaps in the cruelest twist of all, sometimes parents are forced to eat their candy in the broom closet instead of where it’s meant to be eaten: mindlessly in front of the TV or while standing at the countertop, staring off into space. Thanks, kids.
