Do You Give Your Kids Cough Syrup?
Here's an article about giving kids cough syrup and another article about doctor's warning about the ineffectiveness of cough syrup . Personally, I avoid giving my kids medication as much as possible. And when I decide that it's time for medicine, they usually outright refuse...maybe they know what I'm giving them is no good. ;-)

Great post. I'm suspicious of stuff that stops the body from doing what it needs to do to heal. Coughs cough up stuff that needs to get out of the lungs.
Not as of yet. I'm very afraid to give him anything. lol He gets his teething tablets and that's about it.
That's an interesting way of looking at it. The only time I'm tempted to give them something is when they have trouble sleeping at night. Rest is important in getting well...how do you help them sleep, Carrie?
