"Annie's Mailbox" follow-up? (On getting kids to eat)
I always have trouble accessing any website with the "Annie's Mailbox"
column - they frequently conk out before I can get there. Anyway, there was a letter from Jan. 22 (see here, http://www.aberdeennews.com/mld/aber...t/10708198.htm ) about making kids eat. I was appalled that the response was (pretty much) along the lines of "don't make kids clean their plates, because letting them act rude and ungrateful regularly is better than not wasting food, even if you can't afford to waste." For a fair, gentle and NON-WASTEFUL alternative to that, see here. http://www.thetimesnews.com/2001/01-..._rosemond.html Or check out "War and Peas," in Amy Dacyczyn's book "The Complete Tightwad Gazette." (She's a mother of six.) Anyway, has anyone seen a follow-up to that letter? If so, do you have a link? Thanks. Lenona. |
