Weenie Roast

This is something you would have NEVER seen with the first one, not even the second one. At some point during the parenting journey I decided that not everything is life or death. A periodic sugar overload can be overlooked. Processed foods and chips for the weekend won't cause cancer as an adult. Eating a hotdog with a little ash on it will steel his stomach. Heck, let's teach him a little fire safety while we're at it by putting him at the fire pit with a metal rod and flammable clothing. No big deal. He cooked and ate the hotdog with enough cheetos and marshmallows to make an ordinary man pant and turn green. The bottom line...he lived to tell about it and he may even be a better man for it someday.
