Told ds he could have chocolate bar if he cleaned my car. Now I want to eat the chocolate!

Would I be really bad?

Yes!

Can you get away with eating it and fobbing him off with a penguin?

YABVVU! Why not get him to sweep your chimney as well you slave driver

Lol! But he is 14 and doesn't deserve chocolate.
P.s bouncingturtle, he wontfit up the chimney, he's too big!

So is that a no then?

Get in your lovely clean car and drive to the nearest gagage , corner shop whatever and buy another bar!

Send him out for more chocolate
let him keep the change though to show your not that mean, lol

Garage-gagage sounds like an S&M accessory!

Just eat it - then it'll be too late .

My DS'll eat just one square of choc, then hoard the rest for later. I'm always nicking it - then feel overcome with guilt when I see him searching for another square a couple of weeks later.

PS I was only joking about eating it...

Dd may well fit up the chimney though, and I havent promised her chocolate either.

If you eat it, at 14 he'll never fall for that trick again. Short term gain, long term loss scenario!
Go out and buy yourself a stash instead.

Goblin, you haven't met him! Ds will do anything for the promise of chocolate!

I dread the day when all my lad's problems can't be solved with a chocolate biscuit. He's got to 15 and it's still the answer.
However, in my house a promise is always kept. So if I ate his chocolate, he'd not trust me if I promised him a chocolate-based deal in the future. Very black/white world view.

If we are talking morals, I would have to point out that he promised to clean my car if I fibbed and told his scout leader he was Ill on st georges day!

Eat the choc and give him a quid.

I'm that mean, I'd eat the chocolate and give him a clip round the ear!

Just saw the bit about the lie.

Well, in that case, the lie is the payment for the car and you owe him no chocolate.

Enjoy it.
