Because my SIL in particular seems to think I am!
DD is 3 next week & has always had water to drink during the day, at meal times etc & then a cup of milk at bedtime.
It's what she's always known, if she asks for a drink she knows it will be water & doesn't think anything of it. If we go out then I usually take a bottle of water with me for her. Occassionaly she'll have some orange/apple juice & as a special treat she gets 'pink milk' (small drop of strawberry milkshake in her milk).
It's not like she NEVER has anything else but admittidly very rarely.
When we go to partys etc she'll just usually have the water we brought with us but obviously if she's offered juice then she can have that I don't take it off her but she knows it's a treat.
Anyway (sorry waffling) my SIL seems to think I'm most odd for not letting DD have fizzy drinks etc etc & is forever trying to sneak Lemonade/Cherryade/anything fizzy to DD behind my back when we have family events etc & gets really stroppy about it if I tell her DD isn't allowed it.
I really don't see the issue, surely the fact that DD mainly drinks water is a good thing?
AI really B that U?
