SMACKING

How do you get a seven and nine year old to stop smacking? I can't stand the sound of it. I watch them during the day and everything they eat they smack. Just want someone to give me some advice please

At least they eat.  So many moms write in about their child who is a picky eater.

My reaction is that if this is the biggest thing you have to worry about with a 7-year-old and a 9-year-old, you are doing really well as a mommy.

Try not to let it get to you.  They will eat more politely when their girlfriend, not their mother, tells them that she can't stand it.
