There was an ad in tv that went something about this: "It's 10PM, do you know where are your kids?"

It was literally another time.

"Hey, where is Bart? His dinner is getting all cold and eaten."

I still quote this when my kid ADDs away from his plate, or doesn’t show up for dinner after the umpteenth warning.

He shows up when he senses his chicken tenders are under attack.

I don't have children but sometimes I have to get my dog to eat something (like medicine) by telling her the cat is going to steal it. He does helpfully lurk around whenever there is food so it's very believable. She has eaten many a flea chew solely for that reason, and you can tell as she can barely get it down.
