I ask parents to picture a memory of a friend drinking from a can of pop or can of beer, recall how their head tilts back a little. Because it is impossible to swallow with our chin touching our chests. Parents usually chuckle a little and I see the light bulb turn on in their minds. Ramming the head. I see a lot of this too. :-( I usually emphasize supporting the back, shoulders, and neck.
