In Kids or Trash?

I can’t even tell you how much sugar I’ve thrown away in the past few days. And we aren’t even a family that purposely keeps cookies and candies around. But somehow it just sneaks in and accumulates. There were treats from school, leftover church snacks, gifts from family members, etc. To keep our family from mindlessly eating it I decided to be ruthless and just trash it. It was really hard since it wasn’t expired and was technically still “good” to eat. What helped was repeatedly asking, “Do I want this in my kids or in the trash?”
