<<I agree -- they are a boon for mom, especially since the baby can't  spill

anything out of it, but hey -- let's take the time to teach our babies  that

cups are for drinking out of, and not playing with, except in the bathtub,  
the pool, or the sink.

Jan, I wonder about how much snacking/grazing and therefore
overeating/obesity is related to walking around with a bottle or sippee cup
of juice/soda/whatever?

Barb, I had this discussion about the cups with a a speech pathologist
friend. It was a while back, but will see if I can find something related! 

Best wishes,
Sam
