From the mouths of babes....
“When the whole family eats a diet of fruits, vegetables, lean protein and non-fat dairy. No cookies, candy, cake, ice cream, juice boxes, Happy Meals, chicken nuggets, etc. Does that sound good to you?”
It’s so that the kid doesn’t feel like they’re punished. Things like “Why can mommy eat ice cream and I can’t” could really mess up a 4 year old. But then again you can tell the kid that it’s “no sweets or you’ll get fat” but if the kid chooses to get fat he will not only be fat for the rest of his life he will also probably have no self restraint in other matters
Would you stock a full bar when you live in a house with an alcoholic in it?
You can get away with eating stuff like that if you get a decent amount of physical activity.
Kids have no filter, ever.
My mom told me that when I had been in kindergarten, we had this task to draw pictures about our family's day. One was about my mom eating candy with text (written by the teacher) "My mom eats candy every evening while watching TV". She said that that got her to stop that habit for many years.

This is not dieting. It’s eating healthy. Since when is that miserable?
