[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you let your kids drink soft drinks/soda pop? If so, starting at what age? If it were totally up to me, I would never let my kids have them, but sometimes we go to restaurants and that's all they serve.[/quote] No, all restaurants serve water and this is what my kids always order. Sometimes unsweetened ice tea.[/quote] I have yet to find a sit down restaurant that doesn't have milk. If they don't have it on the menu, ask if they have it. If nothing else, they have it at the bar. If we are at a party and the host is offering soda, they can have some. We used to drink a ton until a year and a half ago. I stopped drinking it - having the kids ask for sips help spur me along. It has ZERO nutritional value, and I just don't want them in the habit of drinking it every day. I do make lemonade and sweet tea at home - I can control the sugar. I am fine with them having sips of my tea if they ask.[/quote]
