Why do health proffesionals give children lollypops for being good? They have got to be one of the stupidest things ever invented for children. Erm hello.... Toothrot!!?? Chokeing!!?? YOU ARE HEALTH PROFFESIONALS!!! I have NEVER EVER bought my kids lollys and J who is 3 has had 3 in his whole life time. 1 from a shop assistent one from a Doc at the hospital and one from the Doc just now. They give them directly to the child so its not as if Iv given my permission and I feel bad for taking it away when hes already stuck it in his gob going mmmmmm.

About 2 months ago my mum and I went shopping, taking dd and 2 yr old ds with us.
We went into an Italian for some lunch and I ordered spaghetti carbonara for ds. I then went off to bf dd and when I returned ds had a great bowl of spaghetti in front of him, with a small amount missing from it, and he was munching away on a lollypop!!!
My mum said ds was tucking into his spaghetti happily until a waiter came over, showed him the lolly and said "You can have this for being a good boy", putting on the table in front of ds! :roll:
Of course all interest in the spaghetti went out of the window...
...thanks for that....grrrrr! :evil:
I agree with the whole chocking thing with lollies but to be honest its a treat and providing you clean there teeth I don't see the problem with tooth decay.
