Grl, I got called out quite a bit for cake eating because I would do things like family dinners. And I don't regret it at all. Decide what you want to do based on what's best for your kid. If you want family dinner and it doesn't send you spinning, do it. Sotto's points are spot on, I don't disagree with her, but I'm just offering a different perspective. For me, it was 100% about my kids and this was what felt right to me.
