Hi, all.
I've seen so many postings lately about kids "cheating," that I thought I'd
reply to the list instead of individually. I also hope you won't think I'm a
very cruel mommy; but I have devised a method that works.
Ever since my son was diagnosed 6 years ago, (age 1 1/2), I have always
associated ANY negative feeling with the possibility that he ingested gluten.
He has a tummy ache? Uh oh...must have gotten some gluten somewhere. He has
a cold? Uh oh...we better be more careful. Headache? Tired? Just feeling a
little grumpy? Uh oh...
I know for a fact that in most of those instances, he did NOT eat gluten. But
today (age 7) you couldn't PAY him to eat gluten! He even checks me: "Mommy,
are you SURE this macaroni and cheese is gluten-free? It looks just like
Kelsie's....." (Kelsie is his little sister who eats gluten and is not CD).
He definitely has the "better safe than sorry" attitude! Hope this doesn't
sound cruel; more importantly, I hope it works!
Take care,
Danna Korn
