My kids are both very active so I don't have a problem with them eating a sweet treat, typically as a dessert after meals. I'm probably more relaxed about it in the summer as well. I wouldn't say I place restrictions, but it's not an all-day free for all either.

I don’t really have a restriction on sweets. My kids know if they eat their food they get dessert after dinner. I have picky eaters so there are plenty of nights they go without dessert. They still ask me for a snack so they aren’t getting sweets all day long. Definitely more relaxed on my limitations during the summer.

The "sweets" in our house are pretty limited (popsicles made from Greek yogurt and flavored with no-sugar cranberry juice, cherries and currants from our garden), so I don't restrict treats when we come across them at a party or someone's house. If we have a load of candy from Halloween or something else, I'll let her have a few pieces a day. It really varies.

Only special occasions. But, there seems to be more & more occasions that qualify as special to us!...e.g., first day of school, dance recital, out-of-town visitors, etc. In general though, we avoid keeping sweets in the house, so temptation is pretty low while browsing our pantry.

We are more relaxed in the summer....we don't have a daily limitation. When they are in school, we usually only do sweets on the weekends.

My kids definitely have dessert every night if they finish their dinner and during the summer/vacation sometimes during the day too. I was way more restrictive when they were younger, but my 6yo inherited my sweet tooth, so he's always asking!
