Play date with friend at her house. Both with children aged 3-4.
Friend makes pot of tea for us and brings out some biscuits.
The kids get those plain non sugar ones for babies. I think it was the Heinz biscotti ones. We get chocolate cookies. DS comes over to get one of mine. Friends says oh no he can't have one because then mine will want one too and he doesn't get real biscuits.
So I have to say no. DS (only just turned 3) has meltdown as he can see this plate full of biscuits that only grown ups are allowed to eat. Ends in me saying to friend actually I'm alright you can take the biscuits away, I won't have any (DS still tantrumming). I know his behaviour wasn't great but he is 3 and didn't really understand why he was getting rubbishy biscuits while we got to scoff cookies.
AIBU that this was a bit mean of her?
I was and still am quite strict about DS diet. He doesn't get cookies/cakes etx very often. But if a plate of goodies come out for the family I don't deprive him. I just thought it was really mean.
