    As a paediatric nurse (and human being) this makes me feel physically ill. Children are growing constantly and need good, whole foods and nutrition, with the occasional treat - not the occasional juice cleanse!

    Where is child services when you need them? .-.
    This is up there with parents who dye their toddlers hair and give them botox, except infinitely worse.

    $600??? For five days??? :huh: Not that my mom would have let me do this anyways, but the cost would have really sent her over the edge!!:laugh:

    ^^Agreed! Tell the kids to buy their own damn juices! :angry:

    I love it. Feed your kids crap and it's not child abuse or neglect. "Cleanse" them and it's perfectly OK. What a world we live in

    I can *almost* understand why adults buy into cleanses (like if you understand nothing about science it seems plausible that toxins would accumulate from a lot of booze and lack of vegetables or too much caffeine, etc). But children? Children's bodies haven't even been alive long enough to accumulate these supposed "toxins". I just wanna rage-quit the planet.
