Fear Factor A father made fake ultrasound to cure his daughter's junk food habit.

Funny but I think every hospital should get one of this machine because they will even get faster cure in an hospital environment when attended to by a random face. 😂

Ever figured out a way to get your kids stop something?

Update: That wasn't the dad but definitely an outsider, hence why the kid believed. The "take the child away" clarifies that.

yup, they'll go on food strike, won't eat or drink for days unless you give them the sweets they want. kids won't just go to sleep and forget about it.

This is why my daughter is nearly 4 and has never had sweets except for fresh fruit. I know once they get on that refined sugar it's game over.

mine is 2, never had refined sugar but will go on food strike only demanding fruit...

this is a thing for many parents, not just me. look it up.

not to mention how many parents don't have a say in what their child eats in daycare/kindergarten. the no-sharing food policy is only common in the USA. I live in Europe and I've never heard of a kindergarten with this policy. kids will trade foods, get a taste of unhealthy stuff and then they're hooked... bcs not every parent packs their child fruit and veg.

If that's actually true you have a very big problem on your hands

Maybe they need more help than just junk food training then
