Link Between Extended Bottlefeeding and Tooth Decay
by Kristi Carter
Any parent can tell you that weaning a child from a bottle can be difficult. For this reason, many delay weaning and continue to bottle feed their children. This may be easier, but it is not necessarily in the best interest of the child. That is because research indicates that there is a link between extended bottle feeding and tooth decay.
A particularly dangerous habit to your child's dental health occurs at night. There is a definitive link between extended bottle feeding and tooth decay in children who are put to bed with a bottle. Many parents put a child to bed with a bottle so that they will not have to wake up with the child later in the night. The problem is that liquid pools in the child's mouth, even when the child is not sucking. This can soften the teeth and leads to dental problems. This is a direct link between extended bottle feeding and tooth decay.
Another link between extended bottle feeding and tooth decay is the length of time your child uses a bottle. Many experts now say that children should start drinking from a cup around their first birthday. This is because many children start to walk around with a bottle in their mouth, whether they are thirsty or not. Again, this allows formula or juice to pool in the mouth, leading to tooth decay. The sugars in the formula and juice can wear away the enamel on the teeth, making them more prone to decay.
The link between extended bottle feeding and tooth decay does not end there. Parents should never use the bottle as a pacifier in order to soothe their child. This not only teaches unhealthy eating habits at an early age, but it also creates an unnecessary dependence on the bottle. Children who are dependent on a bottle are extremely difficult to wean, leading to prolonged bottle use. In order to prevent tooth decay, it is best to find other ways to soothe your child well before it is time to wean your child
More and more studies by medical and dental researchers establish the real link between extended bottle feeding and tooth decay. For this reason, it is best to start healthy bottle feeding practices early in order to best protect your child from tooth decay and weaning difficulties in the future.

Someone You Used to Know (Original Song)
Sorry to bother everyone with another video (this week). Figured i had some catching up to do. This one isn't really anything much. But i just had something to say.
Hope you enjoy it.
PS: Terima Kasih for all of your kind words.

Someone You Used to Know
Copyright 2008
It was helpless anyway
There's nothing much we could do or say
Darling don't you think it's a shame?
that it had to end this way
So here's to say goodbye,
our love is lost, and we cant figure why
maybe it really is about time
that we finally made up our minds
So Darling, here's to you
i hope that when you find someone new
that she would always be true to you
to love and understand you
Soon you'll build new memories
then slowly you'd forget about me
then i would slowly be
a distant memory
*Soon i'll just be
that someone you used to know
But darling you will thank me
for letting you go
time is not for wasting
i hope you'll find your intended
But i'm sorry
that your intended isn't me
it's not an easy thing
to shake off our history
i know that's what you want from me
but they will always stay with me
i admit i made mistakes
but darling with you it's just the same
if we stay there will be more to make
i dont know how much more we can take
Darling, it would be unfair
to stay with something no longer there
but it doesn't mean i no longer care
but i'd feel like a burden you can't bear
