A father disguises himself as a watermelon to trick his daughter into taking medicine. Is this advisable?

Parents take great pains to get their children to take medicine. Although this method can indeed allow children to take medicine, I think parents should not use this method to deceive children. Because children are relatively young and their understanding of things is not comprehensive enough, parents' routines may plant seeds of doubt in the child's heart, and her knowledge will have to be overturned when she grows up. Recently, a video went viral on the Internet. In order to make his daughter willing to drink the bitter medicine, a father cut half a watermelon into half, carved a hole in the middle, and then hid the medicine bowl inside. Cover it with half a slice of watermelon, then insert a straw into the watermelon and let your daughter drink. The younger daughter mistakenly thought that her father wanted her to drink sweet watermelon juice, but she didn’t expect it to be medicine. However, she was still young and could only tell that it didn’t taste like watermelon, and couldn’t explain why, so she had to continue drinking. He drank the whole bowl of medicine with doubt. In fact, I can understand that as a parent, children have a relatively sensitive sense of taste and do not like to endure hardships, so having to take medicine every time they are sick is a major headache. It is indeed a headache to feed children to take medicine, but I think parents, especially novice parents, should still adopt scientific and reasonable feeding methods when feeding their children to take medicine. If the child is in a relatively good mood, you can discuss with the child to let him take the medicine by himself, and use words of encouragement to let the child take the medicine by himself. This is also a good habit to cultivate. If the child is very resistant to some bitter medicines, you can use some toys to distract his attention, and then feed the child one bite at a time. But if the child keeps crying and refuses to eat even if it is beaten to death, parents should not force the child. It is not too late to feed the child after he calms down. It’s fun to feed your children medicine disguised as a watermelon, but it’s more recommended that parents feed their children medicine in a scientific way.
