In this case normally the child should not be given dinner once, so that the child is too hungry and aks for the food.This can be permessive style of parenting, where the parents are more of friend than being a parent.

Ans 2) Cognitive and socioemotional development of child - Due to this style pf parenting child often becomes demanding and tries to control parents, they have poor social skills or lack of discipline.
