Today I decided I had had enough and told dcg if she didn't put her bib on, she couldn't have lunch. I feel kind of terrible. And I'm also wondering if it's even legal 
to do that. We were having white chicken chili, and dcg is wearing a white shirt. I don't want her to starve (she chose not to eat), but I really need her to wear the bib, and I feel like I'm not approaching this the right way. I don't want food to be a reward/punishment. Help!!!
I might threaten it, but I wouldn't follow through all the way. Just don't give her the messy stuff. What does mom say? I mean, really, a white shirt on a 2 year old
