Is there anything wrong with giving my toddler a sippy cup?

I constantly see parents handing their children plastic sippy cups of juice to carry around all day. Parents use them as a substitute pacifier. This makes me crazy.

Toddlers don’t need to sip juice from a cup for five hours while they play, walk, pet the dog, watch TV, and read a book. They don’t need the extra calories, the extra tooth decay, or the extra exposure to plastic. You can find sippy cups that are BPA-free, but that’s no excuse to keep one attached to your toddler like an appendage.

If you choose to give your child a sippy cup to carry around, I suggest filling it with the best sugar-free beverage on earth—water. From The Smart Parent's Guide: Getting Your Kids Through Checkups, Illnesses, and Accidents by Jennifer Trachtenberg.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
