Wait for it....

How children react when they feel that they don't have an equal share of food

That was cute. Unfortunately though not my experience.

Usually they end up fighting over why the other one has more and then start grabbing and throwing food or yelling "moooomm......"

Thank. It made me smile. But I've also seen what littlewonder describes, and it's not pretty.

Me too, but I have a little trick for that now. Whenever you want two children to share a cake or a drink of pop the rule is this: one person gets to divide it in two, the other person gets to pick which portion they get. You have never seen such evenly-divided snacks.

I do this too! Works like a charm!
For the most part, mine share food fairly well. Other things, not so much.

I liked the look on the kids faces. Cute!

This has been a trick used in my family for several generations. The only drawback is that the divider can be so intent of creating equal sized pieces that they take forever to do it. I saw one of my grand-nieces grab a ruler once.

Thanks for that.

I've often thought that societies would be much better off if six year olds were the politicians and four year olds were the journalists.

Wouldn’t you do the same?...I would...Not just kids… it is built into most of us to be fair and share...we are mostly moral animals...special in the universe I think.

Here's what it got me thinking...I read kdsub's post and thought: Yes, I imagine it would be very difficult, even for a child, to happily eat an entire sandwich knowing the child sitting next to me was eating nothing. Having to watch that child not eat would trigger something inside of me to share. (Barring any sibling rivalry, food fights, etc. that Little Wonder and others mentioned.)

But what if that child who was not given food was in the next room? If the one with the sandwich was only told that there is a child without, or if he/she saw that child without on a TV or computer screen instead of real life? I wonder if the ability to distance makes the difference; if children are able to distance themselves from feeling sympathetic for someone; or if they teach themselves to as they get older.

Perhaps I should have just enjoyed the video and said thank you.

And now I want a sandwich.

"We are family

There is one dominant male and female, called the “alpha pair,” in a wild dog pack. Still, everyone in the pack gets along very well most of the time. Food sharing is a critical part of pack life. The adult dogs eat and then regurgitate (throw back up) the meat for injured or ill pack members and youngsters. "

Saw this on NatGeo, when I read Butch's comment it was the first thing that came to mind.

Thank You Kirata for posting. If only Congress could figure this out!
