Dear lybrate user. I understand. the control is pretty easy. You just have to keep the sugar away from your father so that in any way he is unable to get it when you are not present. In your presence you can always tell him that and control the behavior. But I suggest you to just leave him to enjoy. But not to enjoy too much. Take care.
