[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sports teams - omg, every HS team my DD was on did this - the individuals would share water bottles. They sat in a cluster, the team mates would pass their water bottle to the teammate next to them. Now they did squirt the water into their mouth (mostly) I still didnt like it. I told my DD not to do it. I talked to the coach. Mentioned it as often as I could when driving other teammates home.

Don't think what I said made any difference. My DD said it would be weird to have a "hang-up" about this. These were her team mates, her friends. She described like it had a bonding component, it's what friends do. ick.

My dd too! They did it with squirt bottles or my daughter has no problem that someone drinks from her camelbak spout or she drinking from someone else's bottle. I have nagged my dd about it outlining risks of catching something but she says I am too paranoid. I had trained my dd from young not to do this and when she got into middle/high school, all these changed and being with the group had more pull than avoiding sharing of bottles and other personal stuff. They even share towels too!! uuurrgh[/quote]
