Child:
Mom, can I buy some candy?
Mother:
No, not today.
Child:
But why?
Mother:
You ate so much chocolate last week. I really
think it is a bad idea to buy you more.
Child:
But... Mom...please. I love chocolate so much.
Mother:
I'd rather buy some fruit for you and make you a
lovely, fruit salad.
Child:
With ice-cream? Please can I have some
with ice-cream?
Mother:
No, ice-cream is as bad as candy. No,
you can have fruit but no ice-cream.
Child:
Then I don't want fruit.
Mother:
How about a nice piece of chicken. I
will cook it with rice.
Child:
Can we pour a
lot of cheese all over the chicken?
Mother:
No. You don't need cheese on the chicken. It's not
healthy.
Child:
Mom, you are so strict.
Mother:
I just want you to be healthy.
Child:
Oof....
Mother:
(TO HERSELF) Maybe when he's older, he'll
understand
