    OMG I can't stand people who give their children soft drinks, especially coke. Of course it's personal preference but I would never give my child soft drinks. I saw a friends mother give her granddaughter soft drink when she was only 8 months old & she coughed & choked on it so she washed it down with some more soft drink. Grrr that makes me mad.

    That's going a bit far isn't it? I have given my kids soft drinks, I would hate to think that you would judge me so strongly based on that.

    I think this whole thing needs to be put into perspective - there is nothing wrong with giving our children the occasional drink of soft drink, or the occasional lolly or chip, so long as it is exactly that - occasional. If your childs overall diet is balanced and they are active, then junk food will not harm them or make them fat or ruin their teeth, as long as it is purely a 'sometimes' food and not an 'everyday' food.
