Some children who have breast-fed until almost a year of age will not accept any cow's milk products. One way to help them make this transition is to sweeten cow's milk with something such as honey. When the child is drinking enough cow's milk, gradually phase out the sweetener. Some children will take bitter medicine more easily when it is mixed with something sweet, such as Kool-Aid or chocolate pudding. Most adults and children enjoy sweets.
Most children spend part of their allowance on sweets.
And eating sweets in moderation is fine. A well-balanced diet can include some daily sweets. You find yourself repeatedly nagging your child about sweets. You think your child has a problem with sugar. You have other questions or concerns.
