- Is it a rule that kids must act like they’re auditioning for a dramatic role when they hear what’s for dinner, even if it’s their “favorite”? I might need a reboot on this parenting gig.

- Isn’t it funny how suddenly they turn into food critics when dinner rolls around?
- Maybe if I serve dinner in their lunchbox, it’ll be more appealing? Desperation calls for creative solutions!

- Oh, the dreaded “S” word. Pro tip: try offering them their veggies from dinner as a snack.
- At least you can pretend for a moment that they actually ate some real food. No evidence to dispute that!

- Wow, someone’s not holding back! I appreciate the honesty, little buddy.
- So basically, never? Sounds about as likely as a post-apocalyptic scenario.
- Your kids could care less if you’re on your last leg; you’ll always be their personal snack dispenser. Nice to feel needed? Maybe?
- Here’s a little parenting hack: save your sanity and embrace the chaos.
- Rinse and repeat. Happy feeding, fellow parents!
