Aside: We have been discussing doing a wine-tour of the Oregon Coast. If we end up in your neck of the woods, I'll give you a shout.I am a firm believer in trusting my instincts as a parent, and my instincts tell me chemicals in the body of a 7 lb. baby or 30 pound toddler whether it be in water, syringe, food, environment is not a good thing
Your kids are lucky to have you as their advocate, of this I have no doubt AT ALL, but we are the stuff of chemicals. That said, you are right, it comes down to a debate about "choice." Like mk mentions, there are likely alternatives that will allow for all parties to have the "choice" they desire, but it would be costly. Have you heard of people in your area suggesting these alternative options?
