[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 69562, member: 3419"] [i]all the sweeties she can conjure up. But the little boy just sits there and cries. It is a phenomenon his sister calls "tragic sweet deprivation", because "the moment he took any sweet at all, said his sugar-addled brain, that meant he was NOT TAKING ALL THE REST. And there were so many sweets HE'D NEVER BE ABLE TO EAT THEM ALL. It was too much to cope with. The only solution was to burst into tears."[/i] Very interesting, Marguerite. I like that author! He has a good, solid understanding of the human psyche. Yes, that technique does work. I've done it. (Okay, I didn't use a bucket, LOL!) [/QUOTE]
