I am that kind of mom who is annoying, boring, and all in all, a pain in the neck because I won’t let my kids eat sugar or carbs whenever wherever. I am the one who will refuse the waiter that candy he genuinely offers to my toddler as an entertaining object.

I am also that kind of mom who feels guilty for being too restrictive. So then, I bake cakes with the children, leave them have that cookie or enjoy some ice-cream time in the weekend. And afterwards, I feel guilty again when the sugar rush kicks in and chaos is installed.
