Dear Children's Medicine Makers

Dear Children's Medicine Makers,

Just some thoughts from a mom, now I am not sure if maybe you all don't have children, or maybe you are not testing your products out on children, or maybe just maybe you are just that lucky that you find the only kids in the country that actually like your products.  But seriously what is with your flavoring system, would it be to much to ask to just not make children's medicine not taste like anything at all.  If water flavor is a flavor could we just make all medicine taste like that.  This would make the famous suggestion of mixing the medicine with juice or milk or water a lot easier!  Or here is an idea sole based on my opinion I would think most toddlers switch to apple juice first maybe you could make your medicine taste like apple juice.  I am not sure who came up with the great idea to flavor medicine like cherry or grape but try your own product it doesn't taste like either one of these things.  And to further the thought whoever thought to put red dye in the medicine you should be fired this is just a for-sure way to get stains on the child's clothes. 

So I thought I would suggest some product ideas for you to consider, pediasure has got the right idea with there product made into Popsicle form however my child doesn't like the flavor I am sure there are kids that do.  In my opinion if we could get all children's medicine in Popsicle form as an option I would probably pay two or three times the amount as the regular form.  Here is another idea fast dissolving tablets or even better Listerine made a fast dissolving strip some years ago and pretty much once you put these in your month there was no spiting it out.  Could we get children's medicine in this form PLEASE. 

Thanks for your consideration from a mom who is tried of forcing medicine down my child's throat only to have him spit it out anyways.  Your product doesn't help if we can't get a child to swallow it!
