Why do kids cringe at the thought of peas, but wont think twice about eating a dirt clod or an old dead bug?

Answer 1

well young kids will do it for attention.

or maybe they are just differant...

Answer 2

Maybe its that bit of rebel in us all. Parents want them to eat the peas, and obviously stress not to eat the dirt and bugs. So maybe subconsciously they just want to do it to kinda start making their own way.

Answer 3

I don't know....my son likes peas and broccoli. I don't have to ask him to eat them...he asks ME for them. He's 2.

Answer 4

My kids love peas. and both of them hate bugs...so i'm not following your question here.

Answer 5

Because peas are green........What other reason does a child need...lol

Also you want them to eat green [yuk] peas..

You don't want them to eat dead bugs..

Ipso facto...they want to eat dead bugs..

Ah ...to be a child again
