Eat food or no TV

C has been quite excited to watch cartoon on TV. D lets her watch once in a while. Yesterday night, C didnt eat at all. D tried to put on the cartoon TV and tried to make C eat. She said that rice ball was 'monkey egg' (dont know why!!!!?) or something, but still C would not budge!
I thought I should try and tried to feed C. Whenever she would refuse to eat, we would say that we would switch off the TV! C didnt want the TV to be off, so she would take a bite. She would close her mouth while taking the bite and so only the least amount of food from the spoon would enter her mouth. That was not good. So, we threatened again that the TV will be off. She reluctantly took on spoonful. When I was becoming ready for the next spoon, C got down and picked up the remote and gave it to me and said, "off panniko" and walked away! The food was so horrible, she could not take it anylonger!!!!
(yesterday's food, to be fair, was ordered from a chinese takeout, and was the worst chinese food I ever ate!)
