Choc Milk

Daddy... Daddy... Dad-Dee. It is 7 a.m. and Owen is standing in his bed, calling out to me. I sit up, gaze through the hall and say "Hey buddy!" He sees me, says "Hi" and then "Choc Milk!", and so our day begins. Apparently Owen has become addicted to chocolate milk. As soon as he's awake, he needs it. Sometimes, being the concerned parents that we are, we try and trick him into drinking just the white stuff.... but he soon realizes and gets pretty angry. I don't know if chocolate milk has been proven to contribute to anger problems, but I am thinking that there is a direct corelation. In a few studies I have read, "it might not be a good idea to let your child drink a gallon of chocolate milk for breakfast". Although, if you read the Nestle Quick label, it seems to have some pretty good health benefits.... and doesn't mention anything related to anger problems. There could be something to that little rabbit on the box. His relationship with Owen may need to be re-examined.
