It doesn’t often work on my son either. He looks at me like really mom? He actually got ready for bed faster last night when I never said anything to him at all about bedtime.Doesn't work on kids, either. Or at least not on Aedan. He's too smart for that.
Sometimes I miss the days when DH could get DD to eat by taking a bite from her plate. She did turn out to be a fabulous eater.
