We don't give candy either but my mil asks every time she sees him whether she can give him candy. I used to explain that I don't want him eating candy at all but now I just flat out say no. But she asks every single time.
@Andrea: my son knows the word lollipop too. I have no idea where he learned it.

Haha. So cute. LO has no idea what candy is.

I don't plan to give my son candy... his first time having candy will probably be at a friend's birthday when he's in preschool of kindergarten lol!!

I bake all my own treats and I use only honey or pure maple syrup as sweeteners, I don't use refined sugar at all. He can have some of my treats when he's older, but not very often. I also have a problem with how spoiled kids can come off when they're allowed candy every day. I know most kids don't understand or care about being "healthy" from the get-go but I hope to ingrain in him the importance of taking care of your body.
