Sugar Highs and Lows

What candies are we boofing as we head into this festive season? What does boofing mean? And the biggest question of them all -- are we giving our kids sugar in the forms of pumpkin pie, candy, and cookies before they turn 18? No answer is the wrong answer (unless it is) but it’s interesting to see how different parents form different decisions and rules around these sweet delicacies. Sugar intake is small potatoes, but it has Claire and Kate wondering about the boundaries we put in place for kids now as well as in the future. Weekly Plugs: Sweet Potato Pie Ice in a bowl Trunk or Treat Editing, recording, post production and dad insights by Joe Leonardo. Music by Christopher Morucci Follow @whatchaexpecting
