We have 1 rule in our house. If dads eating DO NOT BOTHER. When I say "I'm eating" everyone has learned, do DO NOT junmp on dad's lap, if he is in the TV room DO NOT JUMP ON THE ARM OF HIS CHAIR, as you will be moved to the floor right away. Then there are no treats. But If your good there is always something left on the plate or bowl, when it hits the floor.
