Don’t give your kids sugar if you love them? Pretty extreme.

Maybe, but when you look at how damaging sugar is ... byujacob has a good point.

And BTW sugar is in a lot of things these days at incredibly high levels

Yeah, unfortunately our choices are to make things from scratch or cut added

sugar in moderation. They don't need soda, they dont need dessert everyday...

I hate being the bad guy sending strawberries to class parties instead of oreos.

Oral hygiene is important, no doubt. But frequency of exposure to sugar is

His mom probably gave him Coke to drink in his bottle or sippy cup

My mom gave me red vines to use as a straw to drink pepsi as kid

The difference was that back in those days, we drank a lot less soda

yeah but you probably had to ride your bike 10 miles to get them back then.

Saw a kid recently with horrible teeth. His parents had been giving him orange Gatorade in a sippy cup every day all day

4/15/21 12:15pm

Its got what the plants crave.

4/15/21 12:18pm

oh wow, yikes! Doesn't Gatorade also have acids that destroy teeth?

That’s awful. I wonder if schools could get involved and n cases like that. Hold

If he's using a sippy cup, he's probably 1-2 yrs old

I'd support the school referring him to a dentist not holding him back.

byujacob

not if he is from south America.

Is juice better/worse than a bottle of Coca-Cola in the crib.

valleus

4/15/21 12:15pm

Both bad. Coke probably worse. Depends on the juice. OJ is pretty bad too

byujacob

4/15/21 12:22pm

Well OJ killed his wife so...yeah...OJ is worse.

Probably waited in line at Swig on the way home as a reward.

Once a week in the Medicaid child clinic we’d have a 4-7 year yo who had 100%

Genetics is one factor.

Good point

You may have also had a very aggressive dentist.

byujacob

4/15/21 1:01pm

What other options are there?
