I'm very concerned about all of these "germ fighting" products. If you
get impetigo, doctors will tell you that the best medicine is good old
soap and water. We're causing our youngsters to be fearful.

Not only that, but I believe we are probably lowering their natural
immunity defences, if you never meet a germ who didn't like you,
heaven help you as an adult when you cross against a bad one.

My philosophy: Clean enough to stay healthy and messy enough to be
comfy. And will someone please tell me WHY a toilet bowl has to be
germ free? There is NO way you can keep a toilet bowl germ free,
especially considering just exactly WHAT it is we use the toilet bowl
for!!!!! Of course, "you" must watch the kids so they don't drink out of
the toilet bowl or play in the water too often but sheesh -- enough is

enough -- LOLOL! CiaoMeow >^;;^<

I talked to my trusted dentist about toothpaste and mouthwash. Which
products would keep germs away the best in order to stop caries. His
smiling answer? "Any of them. Take your pick. There's no such thing
as completely removing all the germs. Don't believe what they tell
you." And, he added that we need germs to fight bad germs.
Hand washing is important as long as you don't become obsessed with it.
There's some theories that all of this is increasing asthma and
allergy problems.
