Your 5-Year-Old Son Has Not Been Eating a Balanced Diet

Your 5-year-old son has not been eating a balanced diet lately even though you provide well-balanced meals for him. To get him to eat his vegetables, you tell him that if he eats all of his vegetables you will let him have his dessert. Although many parents in Australian culture bribe their children in this manner, what is the likely result?

A) Children learn to eat a balanced diet.
B) Children come to associate vegetables with dessert and begin eating quite a bit more vegetables.
C) Bribing children to eat their vegetables actually contributes to childhood obesity.
D) Children refuse to eat vegetables unless they get sweet treats before eating vegetables.
