I found it helpful to think of it this way: “Do I want to be the person who lectures children on the unhealthiness of cake at a birthday party?”.

I don’t really see this as a good analogy unless the children express a will and ability to eat cake for each meal of the day from then on, in which case, yeah, I’d be that guy.
I would say it to a child I felt was actually receptive the next day.
Yeah. Wait until they’re already feeling some of the negative effects.
Both already feeling negative effects, and also don’t still have access to cake. In my experience it doesn’t work if there is still cake available.
