[quote=Anonymous]If you seriously believe the dangerous germs come from friends' and families' utensils you are very misinformed. Your child will catch things from floors, play equipment, stores, cars, handles of everything and anything...but the chance your child will get sick from sharing utensils is low. People you go out to eat with will have the courtesy to not share when they are sick. That's more than you can ask from the entire rest of the world. Your child gets in touch with way worse things every day and everywhere. THAT'S why people here say "unclench". It's much more important to have your child learn proper hand washing technique and practice that. Teach not to touch stuff and put fingers in mouth. Teach to stay away from handles in public places - THOSE are serious germ parties.[/quote]
