When you have a 4 year old so disrespectful that he throws his whole lunch in the garbage because "I don't want peanut butter sandwich, I want pizza". I'm practicing tough love and he's going hungry. Pretty sure if I was ballsy enough to try that when I was little I wouldnt have been able to sit down for a week. I am one enraged mama right now. I refuse to raise some so disrespectful and selfish.

@christimary0, yah I ended up giving him some saltines but thats all he's getting until snack time. oh and when his dad gets home from work they are going to have a conversation.
@withlovedkj, I did end up giving him some saltines. I struggle with tough love.
@denise1493, right! oh and if my grandpa was around he would probably have made me shovel cow shit till dusk lol
That's what I would have done. Everyone has different parenting techniques. Personally I would have lost my patience at that point too and told him to be hungry then. 👌
@bonniesue, growing up we struggled making ends meet and putting food on the table. I'll be damned if my child wastes perfectly good and healthy food because he wants to act like a spoiled brat.
I understand. I think you handled it in an awesome way! 💪 It helps to have some background info. @lacie92 Tell him peanut butter and jelly is an awesome lunch too! 😊😋
I think you did the right thing. My mom always told me she wasn't a short order cook and we will eat when we are hungry. So that's what happened.
@withlovedkj, options are gone. pizza was a treat if my kids picked up their room. they didn't so they got peanut butter sandwiches, oranges, and some BBQ chips. he was upset and he told me he was going to throw it in the garbage (I didn't think he was going to do it) and I told him what would happen if he did that. this was a move to try and gain power over me. options have came and went. this is not suppose to have a bitchy tone btw :)
Hey, may I suggest that you try giving him options? Tell him, he can eat his lunch today and can have pizza another day, whichever day that he likes. He can choose the day. Let me know how he responds. @lacie92
Girl I agree with you they gotta learn the tough way
