[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pediatrician says cut them until 5 (we stopped a few months before). So according to medical professionals, you don’t need to do this for a six year old. Send them uncut, your kid will be fine. Side note - why do all issues like this tend to divide between “I cut grapes until they were teens” and “I haven’t cut a grape since my kid was two”? All free range stuff seems to be like this. “My four year old walks to the store” or “my 12 year old can’t walk go to the park alone, what if there’s someone creepy there?” Can’t we let them go at like… 7 or 8? [/quote] Cutting grapes takes very little time. They can be slippery and easily slide down the throat before you can bite into it. Especially kids with big gaps in their mouths after losing baby teeth. I just cut them. [/quote]
