Marcellus I think it's more modern to have supplements lol I find it more of an old fashioned view that there is no need to take vitamins, and I say that as a very broad statement and am thinking more in terms of adults then babies. As I said I am big on vitamins for myself and dh as I believe our food really doesn't have it all in it and I feel and see the difference taking vitamins has on my body. An old fashioned view to me is the thought that we don't need any. Babies on the other hand I really thought would get everything from breast milk. When DS isn't getting any I will be giving him some form of multivitamin, extra iron and omega 3.

hj I can't imagine it's something that every pead has the same view on, there are bound to be a dozen different view points just as there are on adults and children needing supplements kwim.
