[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend made fun of me for cutting them for my 2.5 year old . I'm wondering if I'm helicoptering.[/quote] At 2.5 years old, I don't think that's helicoptering. My DD is almost that age and I cut them to take the pits out. At some point I will stop, but I'm not sure when. Maybe 3. That seems to be the magical number when toy manufacturers stop worrying about choking hazards. Certainly by 4, I'll stop. I get that you can choke at any age -- even older kids, even adults. There's always a risk. But I do think that at some age it's best to let your child learn to safely eat a cherry rather than always preparing everything for your kids.[/quote]
