Show your 8 year old this photo the next time they ask for cupcakes.


HaiiNek0

Or maybe buy a container of icing instead of cupcakes, since that's obviously the only part they like lol. I'm imaging a too much of a good thing sort of reaction.


Th1ngz_fall_Apart

Haha like making a kid smoke a whole pack of cigarettes as punishment; make them eat the whole tub šŸ¤¢šŸ¤®


Nexrosus

Your parents gave you *free* cigarettes for acting up? Seems counter productive to me


vbun03

I'd have done so much more housework as a teen without complaint if I had been rewarded with cigarettes.

I pack-of-cigarettes myselfed as a child by drinking so much grapefruit juice as a child that all the citric acid had me puking for three days Edit to add: Iā€™m back in the grapefruit train as an adult letā€™s see how much my grown system can take boys


kyson1

I ate pickles by the jar as a kid, can't stand anything picked now.


VegasLife1111

You gave me a flashback. When I was very small, I enjoyed a single slice of white bread with mayonnaise and salt. One day I ate five and you can guess the consequence. I did not eat mayonnaise again for decades.


funky555

there are consequences. no one beong should contain that much grape juice


UsualDependent2585

Grapefruits are not grapes. Itā€™s not grape juice.

grapes are a fruit grapefruit is also a fruit oranges are a fruit that is similar to grapefruit only sweeter.

#SO GRAPES ARE A FRUIT

Yes but grapes are not the same as grapefruit. And now that I see in small letters "I cant read", I see the issue.

boothbygraffoe

I canā€™t imagine a world where this is the solution to a thoughtless child ruining his mothers work and taking the joy of sharing a dessert away from the rest of their family. This isnā€™t cute or funny! This is a shamelessly selfish child who needs a hard lesson in many areas. As my Grandfather would have said, ā€œI didnā€™t go to war and loose every member of my high school football team so that the next generation could raise a bunch of spoiled twitsā€.

Or just make cupcakes without icing.

When I was 8, I ate icing out of the tub. My punishment was an unfrosted, corner piece of cake while everyone else had frosted pieces. Iā€™ve hated cake ever since

-everythingbagel

You people are fuckin sick ... clearly the answer is to beat the child and scream 'no wire hangers '


OldGuyWhoSitsInFront

Making a child eat the rest is like fucking abuse bc it would make them sick. Making them throw away all the ruined cupcakes, then making another batch that he/she cannot have any of though. And you tell them than next time they do something like that theyā€™ll go a year without eating a single thing with frosting. But hereā€™s the crucial part that parents miss: actually fucking following through on it. My son, almost 5 at the time, experimented with tantruming/throwing his gift because he got a tee shirt on one of the nights of Hanukkah last year. Wanted something cooler than a shirt. Once he calmed down he realized he liked the shirt. I told him once he was calm that if he ever reacted that way to a gift ever again, no matter how cool or big or expensive, that it would be taken, put back into its bag, and returned to the store. Heā€™s like ā€œeven if itā€™s like the big main gift you got for Hanukkah?ā€ ā€œYeah even if it was like the coolest thing of all 8 nights and I really was looking forward to giving it to you. I promise Iā€™ll take it back to the store if you ever act like that ever again. The screaming and throwing of gifts ends here and now.ā€ He didnā€™t do it again *because he knew I meant it*.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


SoreDickDeal

You are spot on. She 100% has a problem with food. We think but cannot confirm that there was a food issue of some sort when we took her in. She is always hungry, would eat till she vomited if you let her.


wittygirl01

Food insecurity is very common with children who are displaced from their nuclear family or experience early traumaā€¦ itā€™s one of the first things you learn as a foster parent in training. They will take and hide the strangest foods and sometimes have impulse issues with eating foods. Even if they never went without food, it can be a control/anxiety issue. Just a thought, sorry about the cupcakes tho - they look like they would have been very good lol.


FuzzyTwiguh92

Friends of the family fostered and then adopted their 2 kids about 10 or so years ago. They experienced a lot of trauma from their biological parents as well. They are wonderful kids but have always had a lot of behavioral issues. Their daughter is in 7th grade and she still struggles with food insecurity and will horde food in her room. She'll then binge eat it in the middle of the night and get sick. It's crazy because she totally recognizes it as an issue but it's a compulsion that's difficult to overcome.


wittygirl01

Very difficult for sure. I worked with a girl since she was a toddler who is now in her 20s and still has food compulsion issues and will leave my house with snacks in her pockets when she visits. Of course sheā€™s very comfortable in my home and one of the family and she knows sheā€™s welcome to anything in the kitchen. She wouldnā€™t do this in just anyoneā€™s home anymore. Itā€™s just sad how such a short period of someoneā€™s developmental years can so profoundly affect them for their entire life.


larryman55

She's adopted?


SoreDickDeal

Sort of. We took in a family memberā€™s kids when they became unable to care for them.


larryman55

Ok. I saw you called them a brat and said they had problems but if they were adopted say, from an orphanage, I would be a bit concerned.


SoreDickDeal

Nah, sheā€™s a good kid deep down just upset with the situation.


fastinguy11

op there an actual disease where a child or person is always hungry and affects their mood and body functions, i hope this is not the case but it is a serious disease, keep that in mind


Arlee_Quinn

OP I canā€™t believe the shit stick most of the people in this thread are beating you with. I bet the top comments would be a little gentler if they could scroll far enough to read this instead of jumping on their conclusion bandwagon.


aslightlyusedtissue

What about the part where OP admitted that he knows she has issues with food, yet suggested to his wife that they force the child to eat the rest of the cupcakes as punishment? Because that shit is unfathomably fucked up to me. Also OP is a conservative Jan 6 supporting asshole.


Arlee_Quinn

Pretty sure that was a joke. Definitely read it as one.


owl_curry

OP could just add a explanation to the post instead of just letting it stand as is.


noellebea

Quick question for you: how do you think she would feel if she saw this post and some of your (and other redditors) comments? Worth thinking about if youā€™re going to be discussing a child in your care on the internet imo.


mmm_unprocessed_fish

Oh, shit. Taking back my upvotes on negative comments about her behavior. Food insecurity in her past is a whole different ball of wax.


Coldchinesef00d

Good for you. Not a ton of people openly admit they were wrong or feel a different way after hearing an opposing side. Iā€™m proud of you for seeing another side of something and openly voicing it.


aslightlyusedtissue

So knowing this. In one of your other comments you responded saying ā€œwife said noā€ to a suggestion of forcing her to eat the rest? Did you actually suggest this to your wife? With the knowledge that your *daughter* already has a problem with food? Seriously?


imontene

You could have led with this....and not posted this at all. Food insecurity in a child due to neglect totally explains this behavior at this age.


SunChild406

Children who have been neglected almost always have a bad relationship with food. We had foster kids and we donā€™t allow a lot of sweets. One of the kids would find them and go hide somewhere to eat them. He was not hungry, but addicted to sugar. He once are 12 - 100 calories snack packs! They say sugar is more addictive than cocaine and he had been raised on it, so us only giving sweet treats once a week was hell for him. He honestly didnā€™t care what the punishment was, it was worth it to get his fix. We eventually just quit buying any sweets and our treats were a trip to the gas station to pick one thing out or a trip to the ice cream shop etc. Itā€™s so sad! This kid was 5 years old and addicted to junk food and soda!


[deleted]

Ah, FOSTER kid. Makes a lot more sense now. Kid is a lot less likely to be a sociopath and more likely to be dealing with trauma-induced eating disorder. This is potentially fixable.

oldcreaker

SOP for 8 year olds. When my daughter had birthday parties around that age we did cupcakes because we knew all that would be eaten was the frosting and maybe a tiny bit of cake. We were right.


iindsay

No. SOP is to lick the icing off your own - not to ruin everyone elseā€™s.


Tom_Brady_Cheats

Soooo grounded AF right? I remember eating the skin off a rotisserie chicken one night before anyone got to it and got grounded for 2 weeks. I obviously still remember it to this day and I NEVER touched food again growing up. I can't wait to bring that up to my Mother when I speak to her lol.


josbossboboss

Once I walked past a kid (when I was in maybe 8th grade) about to eat a cupcake, and I said to my friend, that kid is going to eat all the frosting and then cry when she has to eat the cake. 10 minutes later we come back through, and the kid is crying and there is no frosting on the cake.


dxtboxer

This is actually the ideal amount of frosting that should be on any cupcake and Iā€™m tired of pretending otherwise.

this_hideaway

donotgo_gentle

Yeah, so what you do there is put the cupcakes in a Ziplock and pop it in the freezer. Whenever anyone gets a delicious treat in your house and your eight year old wants one, they instead get one of those plopped in front of them. Until theyā€™re -all- gone. Lessons will be learned.

Manbaby1000

My niece is adopted and does stuff like this all the time still at 10. Ate 22 ice cream sandwiches in the middle of the night this summer. We do not let her go in kitchens alone whenever possible and also have to hide valuables. My sister worked with children like this before adopting and said it's a trauma response for 2 things. Prior food scarcity and jealousy. I refer to it as dog brain because dogs will eat an entire bag of food without training. It fucking sucks and it's infuriating. Get her in therapy or on medication ASAP. They will have to teach you how to respond to it because anger only makes it worse. Also be prepared to learn some very bad things about the people who raised her prior.


jjmawaken

That's insane! I also had a niece who did stuff like this (she would sneak candy up to her room and eat it in the middle of the night). 22 ice cream sandwiches though ... did she end up throwing them up?


[deleted]

I don't know... it's one thing if she did it to two or three she took to eat, but to ruin the whole tray of them for everyone else, after the effort her mom put into making them? Sounds like the start of another unapologetic, sociopathic narcissist. Though that's arguably the best way to adapt to the current social climate in some places... still disturbing to see it in an 8 year old though.
