[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 12 year old twins and have not encountered this. I think my kids would go "eeww" and say no if anyone asked to drink from their water bottles. There is a behavior at home that implies this behavior is ok. I never told my kids not to drink from another child's bottle or let them drink from theirs. Some things are [b]innately commonsensical[/b]. My kids don't want to drink from each other's water bottles although they share the same antibodies.[/quote] This struck me as really funny. If you think about it, it is innately commonsensical to share water containers. People in many cities throughout the world share common water areas or rivers and wells. Dogs share water bowls, farm animals share water troughs. Being fastidious about water bottles is not "innately commonsensical". It's something you've taught your kids, and they've picked up on it. But they're not better than other kids, who've learned other ways of doing it.[/quote]
