lol no idea why you are getting downvoted. Fruit snacks are objectively a poor choice for breakfast. I do give my kid fruit snacks as a sometimes snack, so I'm not saying they’re pure evil or anything. But to put them on a plate for breakfast is a poor choice. 

On the ramen - agreed. Not sure about fruit snacks for breakfast though… 

Hahaha what?? No one should give a toddler a gift that they don’t want broken or damaged. It sounds like your kid didn’t even mean to damage it. There should be no punishment. If the stuffed animal is damaged to the point that it’s dangerous it should be thrown out but because it’s dangerous, not as a punishment. 

Past 7?? I think like pre-teen

Your job is to offer nutritious food. Your kids job is to decide how much to eat. Keep offering a variety of foods. Try include one safe food on the plate. 

Caveat here is if they aren’t gaining weight/growing. In which case your doctor should give you some advice and guidance 

We went through this around this age too. It was frustrating!! New bath toys helped. We got the lovevery bath time mini kit (sorry if I sound like an ad) and it was great. I also got some different toys that could stick to the wall and would put them up high for him to look at. My husband will just power through hair washing as fast as possible at the start of the bath to get it over with and then the rest of the time can just be fun. I think that might be the move honestly. Last thing is we pretend he is swimming and floating on his back after we wash his hair. Floating on his back gets the soap out without having to pour the water. This works about 50% of the time. The other 50% he refuses to go on his back and I dump water on his head lol. 

What is a before bed snack?? Is that not dinner? lol. That is so much food
