Umm yes because the lady at the drive thru MAKES him get a kid a donut

Stories like this just make me shake my head and wonder how anyone can be so out in left field not to see their own 'culpability' in that aka you are just being LAZY and not doing yourself or your kid any favors ... like the lady who could not say 'no' to her toddler who only like McDonalds until the behavior got so out of control the poor thing is now 17 and has a had a diet of ONLY McDonalds for 15 years and is no malnourished with health issues and the mother is trying to blame McDonald's for that cause they brainwashed her kid with advertizing and happy meal toys

I go through the Drive thru on route to playgroups sometimes to get myself some caffeine on those tough days and have had daycare kids say 'can we have timbits' and been able to say NO without them melting down or loosing their noodles ... donuts are a TREAT not something you eat everyday and children are competent and capable enough to understand that ... doesn't stop them from TRYING to get them but they are able to graciously accept the 'no not today'!
