How many of you mums feel bad giving making your children happy by giving them sweeties? I know in the long run it's bad for them but i struggle to say no :(

What makes a good healthy candy alternative? I've read about probiotic ones, does anyone have any advice?

As a mum in the dentistry profession I find his really hard too.
