When I give J and R treats, J likes to eat the majority of his and then ask R if he wants to share. J holds out his mostly eaten treat and R usually accepts b/c he thinks J is giving him extra treat. Then 1 of 2 things happen: 1. J grabs R’s treat and eats it and R cries b/c on some level he understands he was just swindled, or 2. R gobbles up J’s treat before J can snatch R’s treat and then R eats his own as well and J is left in the lurch. Either way, Mama loses b/c I have to deal with a crying baby.
