If She Doesn't Stop Doing It Soon...It'll Be Too Late

There are two options: either Poppy quits doing X thing right this instant...or she'll be doing X thing until she goes to college.  And there isn't much time...  

I've heard this 'do you want her to still be doing X when she goes to college?' racket about a variety of babies' humane habits.  Let me furnish you with a recent example:

me:  'Does it really matter that Poppy is still drinking her milk out of a bottle?'

Matt:  'Well, she can't still be drinking from a bottle when she goes off to college!'  

me:  'These are the options?'


It wouldn't be that big of a deal if she did drink liquids from a bottle in college.  Why not?  Maybe that could be her thing, a statement of individuality.
