Show Members Debate Child Going On Hunger Strike for iPhone

The Bobby Bones Show shared a story about a teenage boy going on a hunger strike until his mother bought him an iPhone. Eventually, his mom gave in, and he got an iPhone. Bobby Bones gave the teenager props for originality, but wanted to know as a parent how long you hold out before you cave because you start getting concerned about your kid's health.

Eddie thought if by the end of the week they still hadn’t eaten, he would get them one because of their commitment and dedication. Amy wouldn’t hold out because she knew eventually the kid would cave in and eat something and she would tempt them by making all their favorite meals. Lunchbox shared he would never give in and instead would send them to the hospital where they’d be forced to eat, and they still wouldn’t get a phone either. Bones thought all three of them were right and that shows why there is no single right way to parent. People can go 30-40 days without eating and people do 24-48 hour fasts all the time. Dana White fasted for 86 hours and shared dramatic before and after benefits from it.
