So I have my nephew over for the weekend. I have never in my life had such trouble getting an almost twelve year old child to eat green beans. Granted I feel his pain I don't like them either, but I ate mine. However it took him almost an hour to eat them. I mean come on it's only a quarter cup of green beans.He tried every thing pleading, bartering, giving them to my son and even throwing them in the trash * I caught him of course.* The moment that made me laugh the most was when he referred to having to eat them as an unbeatable challenge in the video game call of duty. He said that he can never get past the first level. That as soon as you get there, there is a man in a tree and the second you spot him he shoots you. Really are green beans that bad? He is standing here as I type this post according to him yes green beans are that bad. My son and I ate ours, I don't think it's that serious but I digress, needless to say he did finally eat them. They were probably freezing cold by then. I don't have the kind of problems out of my two year old. You gotta love kids.
