DH and I can't agree . One of us was raised in a household where it was take as you please and one of us was raised as asking if we could have X, Y, Z . Never denied , just polite asking before taking .
We have almost 5 year old twins.
One of the twins would eat all day given the chance - out of boredom . He will not play or entertain himself and just constantly asks for food.
Fruit or veg is never denied (unless they've just eaten a piece ) . Snacks like crisps , biscuits etc are allowed in moderation .
Is it unreasonable to have them say "please can I have an apple/biscuit/etc " or should they just take as they please ?
Opinions ?
