| | | The Marshmallow Test
These kids are so entertaining to watch! If you have not heard of the marshmallow test, it's a test where a child is placed alone in a room with a marshmallow, and told that if he waits awhile and doesn't eat that marshmallow, then he will be rewarded with a second marshmallow. The ways that some of the kids try to keep their minds off the marshmallows are very cute and funny.

This is a form of torture. Perhaps this would make a good terrorist interrogation technique.  Definitely too harsh for children, though.

Delayed gratification, OH HORRORS! At the request of the Chamber of Commerce and the credit card companies this should be banned.

Poor kids. I think they were about ready to confess by the end--except the one who was already eating hers!

I laughed out loud at the little girl who didn't even wait for the adult to finish talking before she ate half!

I was reminded of the younger brother in the parable of the prodigal son! He didn't want to wait either!

Now, if it was a Mountain Dew LiveWire, it might be different...
