Hi there,
My lovely inlaws love to shower my kids in candy, usually with lots of color, and sugar. A big problem is that it is not filtered through me first, just excitedly handed to the kids.
DH and I notice that red dye especially triggers a hyperactive response from my DS and I am weary of sugar as it is know to lower the immune system immidiately for several hours.
I have asked them to avoid the "colorful' stuff, yet they seem to have forgotten
.
My DH feels that if we just put our foot down we could cause more issues than needed, I think they are my kids and I am there mother, I have a right to ask them to stop!
So in an attempt to be civil I need good articles to show my very non-crunchy IL's that infact these products are not ok!
TIA
