I cannot stand Hawaiian Punch. I don’t like it, therefore I don’t give it to my kid. There is too much sugar for his little body to handle. His father on the other hand will give it to him. I have expressed on multiple occasions that I do not like this but he doesn’t listen. I unfortunately cannot control what he does at his house. However, this morning I had to tell him that it has to stop.
My son came home from his house last night in a bad mood, which is pretty usual for him when he comes home. I hate it because he doesn’t act like my normal crazy kid, he’s just a grumpy violent crazy kid. Not my favorite version of him to deal with. Anyway, this morning while I was at work I was notified by my mom that his diaper was not only a very bright shade of green, but that it also stained his skin. How? Turns out he mostly drinks Hawaiian Punch while at his dads. Not anymore.
It’s making him sick, it makes him angry, and it makes him violent. That’s not my kid. It has to stop. I explained all this to his father and I’m hoping that he listened this time. I guess we will find out. If he doesn’t I’m not really sure what to do.
So a note to other parents, if your kid is acting this way and drinks Hawaiian Punch, try cutting it out of their diet and see if it helps.
