I'm the same Inanna. I refuse to allow my kids to go to school hyped up on sugar. i dn't care how 'uncool' I am. I do buy a small pack of Coco Pops as a treat on school holidays though.
I was never allowed coco pops or fruit loops as a kid - in fact, only recently (i'm 33) did I taste a dry cocopop - didn't like it either. I was allowed to have nutrigrain, rice bubbles or cornflakes though, all options I will not give to my children (i don't think!)
