A friend of mine sent me Confessions of a Slacker Mom for Mother's Day, but I'm more "really bad mom" than "slacker mom" today. I took my two kids to the dentist this morning, and my 3 year-old has a cavity. I would have thought that you would need to have your tooth in your head a year or two before it could get a cavity. The dentist says that juice is the culprit -- children under five should have no more than 4 ounces of juice a day. Yikes. So, I'm pretty sure this goes on my permanent record.
And I don't even want to know how you give a 3 year-old a filling. I'll find out a week from tomorrow.

DON'T DO THAT!!! (please)
Your post scared the heck out of me!!! I am pretty sure that my heart rate was over 120 for the 30 seconds it took me to google "what day is Mother's day 2005." (especially, since I talked to my Mother yesterday)
(this post could simply be the direct effect of finals + coffee + more coffee)

Sorry, Matt! I meant that a friend sent me an EARLY Mother's Day present!

That's pretty scary if you ask me. 4ounce of juice isn't enough for my kids.

Funny you mentioned that. A good mom friend of mine gave her children a supply- probably for the whole year- of juice, and yes, the same thing happened. At least you learn simple life lessons after making that mistake.
