We've all heard of parents struggling to discipline their kids, but what happens when a fed-up relative takes matters into their own hands? One woman, tired of her cousin's destructive twins, decided to train them like dogs using M&Ms as rewards and punishments. The results? Surprisingly effective, but not without some serious backlash. 😲🍬

A Bittersweet Solution? 🍭
So, our creative babysitter found a way to tame the wild twins with M&Ms, but not without causing a family feud. While some relatives supported her methods, others were concerned about the long-term effects on the children. Did she go too far, or was it a harmless way to maintain order? Let's see what the internet thinks of this sticky situation... 🍬🤔
