    There are Calvins everywhere these days – I see more and more kids… little AND big… demanding like this and getting away with it – their parents are afraid of their kids today.

    Years ago I new a little kid that needed consistent FIRM parenting. The mother DID try, but admitted she was not as consistent as she should be. I always figured he was just a ways away from a jail sentence. He’s a bit older now and a bit calmer. We’ll see if he makes it thru high school.

    Learn ‘Calvin’, the best way NOT to get what you want is to DEMAND it—ASK for it nicely and then SHUT UP ! ! ! !

    We had it easy growing up, there were two choices; eat it or go hungry. We were allowed to honestly not like a food, because my Mom grew up on a working farm and had to eat scrapple for breakfast, after butchering time, for as long as the pan lasted. But we better eat everything else without sniveling, whining, complaining or “making a mug (face)”, or we would go hungry.

    Stop blaming the kids. It takes a lot of non-parenting to get kids to the level that they’re at.

    I remember the exact day that my son started wanting his PBJ cut diagonally and not horizontally, not even vertically. He was 3 years old and I was trying to get him to eat a PBJ for the first time. Any one with a 3 year old knows what happened next. Yep! The old I don’t like it. Never had tasted a PBJ, never seen one, didn’t like it. I tried the old, “see, I like it”, the old, “mommy likes it”, the old “eat it before I get mad”. Nothing. And, then I tried cutting it diagonally. Boom! He suddenly wanted a bite. From that moment on, my son only wanted his sandwiches one way, cut diagonally. Who’s to blame? Me! I wanted him to try a PBJ. So, don’t blame the child for what the parent started.

    My brother didn’t like cooked carrots. Spinach was not a favorite of mine. But it was a bit of a game at supper – I’d eat his carrots, he would eat my spinach. Our parents allowed us to play our little game, while trying to convince us (unsuccessfully) that both tasted good. We both grew up – he still dislikes cooked carrots (will eat them raw) but I like spinach now.

    Calvin of course your Mom was listening to how rudely you demanded how you wanted your sandwich made without one single please. How else do you think she knew how to make it exactly the total opposite of what you asked for.

    You guys are all about 65 or so, right? Wasn’t that the “me” generation? The mindless, TV generation? The longhaired, good-for-nothing kids who thought world revolved their g-g-g-generation? With their loud, obnoxious rock and roll, and drugs, and smokin’ in the boys room? Yeah. Look how you all turned out.

    Seems like she went to a lot of trouble not to give him what he wanted…..how hard is it to skip the second slice of bread, skip the jelly, and make it a teachable moment by teaching him how to ask for something he wants in a better tone.

    Calvin is right about 2 things. sandwiches cut in triangles taste a lot better than squares. And peanut butter should always be crunchy, never smooth.

    You would think Mom would get fed up, hand him the bread and the peanut butter, and tell him to make it himself.
