There are some things you pretty much never have to do in the U.S., except for pets that is, that become a part of ordinary life here. When our child continually complained of an itchy backside, the first assumption here, other than "Did you wash it?", is the dreaded worm. In fact, worms are so much a part of life for many people that most organizations recommend that the entire family be de-wormed twice a year "just in case."
Today our sweet little girl joined the de-worming club. So, just how do you de-worm a 2-year-old? Pretty much the same way you do an animal. Hide something nasty in something they like and send it down with peanut butter. Not looking forward to the other end of the process...

Yucky! But yes we are told to deworm our kids every 3 months. It is a sweet liquid so i try to mix it up in their sippie cups. At times I bribe with coke or mix it in that. I never have checked to see if they came out- let me know how that goes!
