Eating Dessert Before A Meal Is Fine As Long As All Of The Meal Is Eaten.
If you are still a child, your parents should determine this, though they should be reasonable.

Do whatever pleases your family and makes them happy. Actually, giving desert after dinner is not a good idea. It tells people that deserts area reward. So, when a kid does something good, he or she expects candy, cookies or ice cream as a "thank you". No wonder American kids are fat. Do what the Japanese do. Serve desert first and then have the meal. It is refreshing and makes the food taste better.

I think its okay to eat desert instead of a meal. If you don't mind being unhealthy, then eat what you want.

What matters most is that you eat on a beautiful kitchen cabinet such as those available at http://www.kitchenspro.com

There is a sound reason to eat fruit before the main. To do with digestion.

Life is unsure, eat your desert first.

Eating dessert first is unhealthy. It makes you full with sugar, and so you can't eat your meal afterwards.

You should eat your meal first so you have something to look forward to after

You assume that they can still eat the whole meal after they eat dessert first. Now they "could" eat the whole meal but your risking that they will. Its like the whole black hole generator thing. It could have destroyed us all. It didnt. But it could have and we risked our entire world on the turn of a switch.

 If someone doesn't know what they can handle, they are a baby. If they have enough experience in eating, they could figure out what they can take.

No, it is the cultural convention in the Western world to eat dessert after the main course, and I think children should be brought up with this.

Well the meal is the most important thing, and how would you know that you wouldn't be too full to eat the meal adter the dessert?

Personally I like to save the best till last.

I like the idea of having it last because then you might not even be in the mood for dessert when the time comes around. Lets be honest the worlds gaining some pounds.

A person should be patient also. Nothing wrong with waiting until your done. Why break tradition?

Also I'm a hypocrite because I have dessert before and after my meal. Damn you chocolaty chip goodness!
