When kids won't drink milk.

I am of the same mind, as llmunchkin. I would love to see this article more developed for a better rating - to include why it's important to have calcium - and therefore why it's important to think of other substitute should the child refuse cow's milk.

Hi Lisa, these are good tips for parents who have kids that don't like milk.  I would have liked to score it higher and I would if you included some information about the importance of milk/dairy/calcium/iron and the other nutrients that are essential for healthy growing bones.  Some other alternatives for people to try would be good too, like fish, leafy greens and other sources of calcium.  For example soy milk, or flavouring your milk naturally and making fruit smoothies etc.  Anyway great effort and it is good to see you so enthusiastic about posting advice.

One of my very good friend's has 3 boys who don't like milk, cheese or yoghurt. She has learnt to put cream and cheese in everything. It's so frustrating.
