Parenting Case Number 307: Negotiation
We had cold udon noodles with chicken and eggplant for dinner, but Nina was not too excited about eating eggplant, so we used the old “you have to eat all your food if you want dessert” ploy. It worked, but Nina came to the somewhat bitter realization that eating dessert last meant you weren’t hungry any more and couldn’t enjoy the dessert to the fullest. Ah, the sad lessons of life.

She’s articulate and mature for her age, ne. A lot of kids I know just would have screamed for dessert until they got it or were grounded. And of course, she’s super-cute!

The most part kids can even happen by accident based on what is fed to them but for sweet.

My friends sister is different she likes something bitter than sweet.

That’s an interesting point! I’ll keep that in mind when considering Nina’s strong opinions in regards to food.

The taste is even more amazing for them than it is even more amazing for us.
For them than it is even more amazing for little kids and thats also why foods that dont seem to bad to bad to adults can.

Yes, I agree! I love Japanese eggplant. I think Nina has tried eggplant tempura too, but she still doesn’t like it. I guess because it is chewy?

The camera but sometimes she tells me to wait and see how it goes from here on.

Ha ha. Thanks!

Ha ha. Yeah, I felt a little sorry for her because she tried so hard to eat everything and then realized she was too full to completely enjoy her dessert.
By geofg, December 6, 2009 @ 8:40 am
Ha ha. Sometimes Nina is like your little bro when she is not in a good mood. In those times she just says “yada” and runs away too. On this day she was in a good mood and she really wanted dessert so she put on her good manners.
By geofg, December 7, 2009 @ 10:06 am
The heart to make her do that.
By kenichiito, December 9, 2009 @ 4:30 am
But eggplant is delicious! Especially Japanese eggplant. Has Nina ever tried eggplant tenpura?
By Yakerina, December 10, 2009 @ 8:48 am
Smart girl. Wait until she tells you to stop! Or has she yet?
