I went to school hungry
Was slow with my bath
I went to school hungry
Could not do my math I went to school hungry Stomach growled at me I went to school hungry
I smelled the flavor of
Cinnamon oatmeal
Mom placed on the table Though late I appeared. But when I pulled chair out To sit down and pig out
Dad cleared his throat loudly And said, “Excuse me.
Girl, it’s time to go.
You got dressed way too slow. Can’t be late for school.
That’s an important rule.
No time to sit down to eat
Breakfast— don’t frown— sorry You must follow rules
Just like mom and me.”

How to introduce new foods to childrenIntroducing new foods to children could take some
strategic planning especially when the new foods are
green leafy things, round green things, or red meaty
things. Kids tend to view these types of foods as "adult"
food. This is why, for many kids, if food landing on their
plates does not consist of appetizers like pizza, burritos, nuggets, bacon, or pancakes, they do not want much to
do with it. Moreover, it is a good idea to ensure children
are actually hungry when prompting them to try new
foods. Grumbling bellies may be more open to

How to help your child not waste food
When children are very young and especially when they have never tried foods before they might want a large serving of an entrée simply because it looks good. They might not think about the fact that they just ate a short time ago and will likely be unable to finish a meal size entrée. Likewise, children often take more of everything available at mealtime, whether or not they have recently eaten, and wind up unable to finish the food on their plates. This could happen when a child does not have a big appetite or because a child ruined his or her appetite by eating a snack before a meal. Read more HERE

How parents make an only child
over-protected or a brat
Whereas falling into the overprotective parent trap or spurring a child into brat-hood could happen to any parent, studies suggest these problems may surface more when parents have an ‘only ‘ child. Spurring an only into brat-hood sometimes occurs when parents harbor guilt over not providing their only with a sibling. In attempt to compensate for their guilt, some parents repeatedly allow onlys to have their way for requests that should be denied. What’s worse is overprotection could instill messages in onlys’ minds that they‘re incapable of accomplishing certain tasks and should only attempt such tasks at the approval of and sometimesoversight of their parents.
