That’s easier to rectify. The parent will just take one and give it to the other so there’s an equal amount. But with an odd number you either have to go Solomon or pick a kid, or eat it yourself and draw both their ire.
Better yet, give them the option on how to deal with it, and if they can’t reach a deal in some time frame, eat it yourself. Throwing it in the trash makes them both feel like nobody wins, but me eating it means I win and they both lose.

Hence the “go Solomon”
That’s the kind of sacrifice I will take upon myself if it can teach my kids a lesson.
