    @allyzay: See my post above, but coffee was supposed to stunt my growth. Either it didn't work, or i ruined the possibility of a career in the NBA (we won't talk about my near-sightedness or lack of eye-hand coordination).

    It is a scary thing feeding your kids speed. But I, for one, did not take the decision lightly. And now, it is no longer wanted. And said kid is almost 6 ft, so I guess we were lucky.
