Why haven't we thought of this before?!
Lots of parents have a few tricks up their sleeves when it comes time to give their kid medicine, but most pale in comparison to one Facebook user’s hack.
Nissa Nani shared side-by-side photos capturing the result of one true mastermind. The mom in the photo outsmarted her daughter by making it seem like she was drinking juice from a juice box, when it was really medicine. After emptying the juice box and cutting out the back of the container, the woman sneakily placed a measuring cup with medicine inside. Punching the straw through the hole at the top, the mom offered up her secret weapon to her toddler. Just like that, a major meltdown was avoided.
Hundreds of thousands of parents who stumbled upon the post have been in awe over the simple yet cunning move. “Why didn’t I think of that. I have had this kid spitting it on my face all this time,” one parent laments.Behind every hack is a frustrated parent who knew there had to be a better way.
