I wouldn't object if she was discouraging something with artificial sweetener.

So, mom is telling her daughter the truth about lo-cal stuff.

kids + juice + other bad eating habits = weight problems.

One of the bigger myths I have to fight is that kids "need" juice.

I sat next to a 9 year old Parisian girl on a one hour flight from Paris to Geneva who continued to pull snack after snack out of her bookbag. In one hour she ate:

- The ring pop, the thing you put on your finger and suck on. She had a bag of like pixie stick sugar that she would dip the ring in for even more sugar.
- A complete dispenser of PEZ.
- Bag of potato chips.
- Several pieces of hard candy
- Juice
- Pretzels and Coke (from the airline)

I was a little surprised by this junk, maybe Europeans are starting to become more Americanized.

Did any of your parents ask you to pick out groceries for them? My Mom bought it and told me what I was going to eat.

Don't get me started on this. We do give our son white grape juice from time to time.

But in order to get his daycare to give him water INSTEAD of juice, or to water down the juice, we - the parents - need a doctors note saying it's okay to do this.

when i was a kid, i remember that clay mud tasted better than regular mud, and mole crickets were the best thing ever.
