Children Were Told That They Can Do Things When They Get Older, So They Maliciously Comply Now

Being forced to eat things you don't like must be among the most annoying experiences. And if we don't feel comfortable with that, why do some still think it's okay to do it to others? Yes, we're talking about parents forcing their kids to eat this and that, regardless of how they dislike it. Parents may think it's for the sake of their children, but it's not. And it may produce a counterproductive effect and ruin everything.
Greens are not welcome to appear on most kids' dinner plates. Whatever kind they are, they're all tasteless the same. Maybe that's why children can even play fake-dead to avoid eating these greeny things. In the story below, this one kid had a special dislike for the iceberg lettuce their mother used in salad. The OP's mother had a now-famous quote “when you make dinner, you can make it how you like it,” and the OP maliciously complied. Scroll down to read the full story below.
