I agree, it is easy to turn them into little beggars. During mealtimes for humans, my boys used to go to their beds and patiently wait. We have been a little more liberal lately with giving the boys a tiny bit of scrambled egg or a couple of baby sweet peas off our plates. Now we have little beggars at our feet when they know we have certain foods.
I like to keep my boys' expectations low when it comes to treats. That way the treats are considered "high value" rewards for good behavior.
