If you can get the kid to eat, do it. Treat the psychological orders later. He's going to have to deal with a lot more challenging issues than that later in life. Maybe it will even accomplish the opposite positive benefit of the baby growing up and associating the nasty taste of whatever the kid was eating, with a chocolate bar, and the kid will grow up hating chocolate. Wouldn't that be just awful! 

@DK / my issue with this technique is not about food. It's about seeing his caregiver doing a bait and switch. And then, not be able to trust or to believe. It's a supported and established belief that everything in a child's development happens before he's 6. That's when their psyche forms, their decisions on who to be and their view of the world. A lot of careers where decided at a very young age. 0 to 6 is the vessel in which a child's experiences make him who he is. It's not irremediable but it's the baseline.  

Well, if everything in my development really happened before I was 6, then I'm really in trouble, because I think when Susie broke my heart at 19, it changed my life forever! 

Ahh, if only that bait and switch HAD happened... and I'd grown up hating carbs... sigh. As for trust issues.. my 'feeder' must have dangled diamonds in front of me ... explaining why I'm easily distracted by shiny objects. 

Ha, a Material Girl! 

More like Dori in Finding Nemo .. hard to stay focu... look... shiny... 

Too cute!
