[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am very lax about what kids eat (I take them fast food a couple times a month, feed them boxed Mac and cheese, etc.) and I still wouldn't give juice that young. I think my kids first juice was a juice box at some kids birthday, probably around age 2. You can't un-ring the juice bell. Once they know, they KNOw.[/quote] Ha, this me as well.[/quote] Seriously, juice or no juice, our kids are much better off diet-wise than we were. I grew up with a mother who wouldn't allow us to eat sugary cereals but we still had fast food as a treat, lots of mac and cheese and remember Hi-C and Hawaiian punch? How many of you had juice boxes in your lunch bags? Capri Sun? Ssips? You could probably make that stuff yourself with a chemistry set! And we're all still here. [/quote] This is the stupidest argument ever. What about all the kids who got diabetes, obesity, blood pressure issues, behavioral issues, allergies from these types of drinks? Well, I'm still here but I want a better quality of life for my kids. I especially hate when this argument is used when talking about car seat usage today and back then. 'We didn't have it and we're here bla bla bla' what about the kids who are not here to talk about their experience???? Stupid stupid argument. [/quote]
