Parents should think about it

Because they taste good?

Because my kid isn't a prokaryote?

Because sometimes, kids deserve a treat, and it's frowned upon to give them manure and fertilizer.

Taste is a big reason. And the fact that kids aren't plants, ya know?

Yeah, and why don't you let the kid outside everyday to get energy from the sun, and throw some good horse feces at him so that he gets all the nutrients.

*Followed the comments to see the arguments the people of FS would make against this post. Was not disappointed!*

Wait, what's wrong with capri sonne D:

The fact that I don't compare my child to a plant ...?

Why would you give your citrus plants soda yes it is a known fact that a sugary water solution make citrus fruits more sweet

Because children have a digestive system?

Tbh I really do think that parents feed their kids absolute crap way too often now, yes treats are good and are a good rewards system but not when that's all they're eating.
Not all parents are like this but a concerning amount are now

Because I don't care enough about my plants to spend $2.00 on a shot of juice that's portable. I do about my kid.

Because my plants don't really like Coca-Cola and Capri Sonne

I always prefer water to pop
Eyy, lmao

I think that the message of this post should have been that soft drinks are unhealthy even for children (they are not wrong, if you give them to your children only sometimes), so you are caring more about your plant than about your child (because water is healthy for them both and soft drinks aren't)

Because plants don't have taste buds and can't enjoy the deliciousness.

To help them grow and live awhile longer?

So I can water my plants instead of wasting it on the little shit
