[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm not a germaphobe and I, too, find it gross to share utensils. Call me strange, but I really don't care. I don't really even share utensils w/ my own DC or DH. We allow the kids to share with each other and that's it. I had the same rule growing up with a parent in th medical field. Adult germs do not belong in kids' mouths. I had to train my ILs on how we are raising our kids. We don't kiss on the mouth & we don't share utensils. I just made it plain that DC need their own utensils. MIL tried to sneak and I remind her ech time. DC tell her now too! Love thise kids... I also told her about the issue the dentist raised. I have no cavities, but she does. Bottom line is that she simply has to go by my rules with my kids. FWIW, I really don't think my family will stop being around because I won't let them share utensils and cups. If so, THEY are the crazy ones. WTH!?[/quote]
