Also, my mom had a rule that "this meal's complainer is next meal's cook," so when we were older we definitely didn't complain much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522877 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 18:31:21 +0000 Alivoo01 522877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so. We were forced to eat whatever was on our plate until it was gone. Even if it meant sitting there for hours on end... =( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522720 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 17:25:35 +0000 Charm54 522720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes - if I didn't eat dinner, then I didn't eat. I also didn't get dessert which was usually a big enough motivator to get me eating! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522716 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 17:23:58 +0000 runsyellowlites 522716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just shared on the other thread.... Yep, one time!</p> <p>I used to watch my sister after school &amp; we got the bright idea to unwrap &amp; then re-wrap all the Christmas gifts that were already under it. My sister uses too much tape in her re-wrapping &amp; my mom busted us a few days later. It was already late afternoon/evening when she did so she sent us to bed early. Tbh I'm thankful she didn't kill us! Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522713 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 17:23:15 +0000 Sweet T 522713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I wasn't picky. I always liked what was cooked for me and ate it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522707 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 17:21:01 +0000 mrsjazz 522707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@KissMeCait: Me too. I have fond memories of falling asleep with my head on the table next to a plate of liver and onions. Blech! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522705 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 17:20:12 +0000 Bao 522705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I usually ate pretty well...if not my mom would still give me a snack, or PB&amp;J </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522610 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:43:45 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 522610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never. I wasn't a picky eater. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522597 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:37:30 +0000 MsLipGloss 522597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, unless I just didn't want to eat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522580 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:33:01 +0000 blackbird 522580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, i ate everything :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522570 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:29:57 +0000 tororojo 522570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so--not as a punishment, and I can't imagine that I would miss a meal on purpose. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522514 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:15:59 +0000 KissMeCait 522514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, if anything I was made to sit at the table until I finished every last bite. I think sending kids to bed without dinner is a terrible punishment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522501 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:13:25 +0000 alayaya 522501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember it ever happening bu I'm sure it did. I was SO picky as a little kid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522492 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:12:02 +0000 tequiero21 522492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No thank god. I don't think I woulda survived the night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-ever-sent-to-bed-without-dinner#post-522482 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:10:42 +0000 chopsuey 522482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I may have skipped a dinner or two when I was younger. Only because I refused to eat what was being served. </p>
