Whether it is suppressing the urge to eat Maggi at 2 am or refraining from texting the ex during quarantine, self-control is the name of the game. When it comes to resisting temptation, many of us can talk the talk but walking the walk requires serious willpower.
Hindustan Times reports that many parents started placing a bowl of chocolate or candy and leaving the room to see if their kids could ignore sweet cravings. After Kylie Jenner’s two-year-old daughter Stormi did it successfully it began trending as the #PatienceChallenge.
Here are children trying to keep their temptations in check when faced with lollipops, french fries, and other treats.
