Oh sure, you're too full to finish your spaghetti but you can fit double helpings of dessert in. 🤨

I go for the economic argument. That spaghetti costs x amount . . if you don't eat it that's wasted labour and your daddy is minutes closer to his grave for no particular reason 😩

@Convivial She started it . . my niece considers any time that her father spends at work when he could be playing with her to be completely unreasonable. Quite a healthy attitude to the work-life balance, I think 🙂

@SunshineGirl i agree with her, but i also applaud turning her own viewpoint against her🤣
