No to both.

[dededi]

No but my two brothers did a few times.

[SunandMoon]

No, never had. IMO, using food by denying or rewarding with it is not a good idea.

No to both. I was, and still am, a very picky eater. If I went to bed without dinner it was by choice. I wouldn't do that to my kids. I'd just unplug the WiFi if I really wanted to punish them. They wouldn't know what to do with themselves.

This was me too, I was stubborn and would sit at the table all night with my plate in front of me if I didn't want to eat supper.

No to both....to deny a child food is reprehensible, imho...geez, I'm opinionated lately!!!
Must be due to the %&*#! snow out there!

-well my dad was an army sargent and he only had the 2 of us myself and brother (2nd marriage for my mom)
and i remember we couldn't leave the table til the food was gone or else go to bed hungry-I am sure we both left some food sometimes and only ate a bit or sometimes my brother would put it in a napkin and flush it down the toilet
-nope never done that to my kids at all

[abbasgirl]

No. I don't remember my parents ever even threatening me with that.
Dessert or other privileges is one thing, but I don't believe in withholding basic needs.
