Milk for tweens

[biancsreyes]

Hi! I have a 10 year old son who does not like drinking milk. Madalas pinagsasawaaan niya yung lasa at ayaw na niya uminom, paiba iba nako ng brands. Sabi niya rin na ayaw na niyang magmilk kasi di na daw bagay sa kanya. He drinks vitamins and eats fruits and vegetables naman but mapili siya kaya minsan di niya rin kinakain. Importante ba talaga na mag-gatas kahit na medyo malaki na sya? When is it appropriate to stop giving milk?

i have 10 y.o. too at same with you conscious ako na makainom sya ng gatas lagi pero i don't push it. meron namn ibang form ang dairy like cheese and yogurt.and calcium has many sources.

siguro sa mga bata,iniisip nila, i am not a baby anymore i don't need milk!

i drank milk all the way to my teens. hehe. magnolia chocolait nga lang. hehe. yung glass bottles na litro. sayang wala na non.

if they don't like milk, there are other dairy products that can help your kid's diet.

there's yakulit, yogurt, kefir, flavored milk drinks.

pero best pa den kung mag flavored milk ka, make your own. less sugars and additives.

i also drank tons of milo and ovaltine back when i was younger, mixed with milk. something that children nowadays don't do.
