Resolved Question

Does anyone else dilute their kids drinks?

I find that the store bought juices are just too sweet and anytime we go out or even at home I dilute them by adding water. I've done this since they were small and now they are so used to it. I even dilute the already made chocolate milk. I have to add extra milk cause I just think it's too chocolaty. Does anyone else do this?

ayankee	Posted Sep 5th, 2009 at 10:45PM No I never did,I don't see any point in it. As far as diluting juice and milk,to me that would be taking everything out that they would needing along with the sugar. Rated: +2Vote for this!

hyacynthe	Posted Sep 5th, 2009 at 9:25PM yes, because it's too sweet, and also makes the bottle of juice last longer Rated: +1Vote for this!

missus123	Posted Sep 5th, 2009 at 9:43PM I do it with my young daughters juice because she is not overly fond of me brushing her new teeth and won't let me do it for long. This is a recommended practice for avoiding dental caries in children. Rated: +1Vote for this!
