If you had a child that was a toilet-drinker?

How would you react? Would you treat them any differently than if they drunk normal water? Would you tell them they were going to hell? (if you are evangelical, that is) Honestly, I really wouldn't treat them any differently, and I certanly wouldn't disown them. I guess I'd need time to think about how to deal with them coming home and talking about having a pint from a toilet at your house their house or even your neighbours houses. If they got picked on because they were toilet drinkers though, I'd arrange a meeting with the kid's parents and raise hell. If my children are picked on for things they cannot control, well I don't put up with bs like that. Anyways, how would you out there handle this situation if it happened to you? I'm not trying to make it sound weird, it's just that different challenges come for parents that have children who drink from toilets and yes, I know people who have children who drink from toilets.

I wouldn't be all that bothered as long as it's fresh toilet water they're drinking.

I'd hit him on the nose with a newspaper and send him to the backyard.

If it was blue water I'd be very concerned. Otherwise, when I'd catch them drinking, I'd pick them up by their ankles and give them a swirly. If that didn't work I'd wait till I dropped off a few friends at the pool, then make them bob for apples (so to speak). That would surely cure their disorder.

Ummm....if my child drank from a toilet I would start turning the valve off after every use.

If "toilet drinking" is some sort of metphor for homosexuality...you need help.

My sister drank from the toilet once. My mom dragged her to the hospital because aparently there are always chemicals in toilet water (ie: no such thing as "fresh" toilet water.) She got yelled at something awful and since then she never drank from the toilet again.

And I think I'd do the same thing.

I'd join in, just to show him nothing's wrong....

...unless this is a gay reference. Joining in wouldn't be on the agenda in that case.

Really, I'd let him be gay, but I wouldn't like him drinking the water. What if someone had left skids, for chrissake

I don't think some of you understand that a simple flushing does not rid the
toilet of it's germs. If that were the case noone would clean under the rim.

It depends.

Is the toilet bowl filled with 'Holy Water'? Then his soul would be saved, even if he had drinked out of the toilet. Like they always say, "Love the sinner, hate the sin". My child might be living in sin, but as long as he is saved, I'm sure Jesus would find a way into his heart and turn him away from evil.

There are these neat little things, you can actually clamp your toilet seat closed... I saw someone use that in a movie once to keep a sewer related monster from being able to get inside their house through the pipes...

Also. CLOSE THE BATHROOM DOOR. that is, if your child is too young to know that what's in the toilet is our waste, not hygenic, and highly prone to spread disease and health problems if it's ingested.

Also I'd probably kill a rat or a kitten and place them in the toilet. When the kid sees that they'll be crying, then I'll say "See what happens when you fool around with the toilet, you die."

BTW-I'm more worried about them sleeping with their hands under the covers.

As long as my kid isn't drinking toilet water after he/she does their business, I'd shrug, and let it slide.

What I would really do is run into the bathroom screaming:
"I won't have a son who drinks from the toilet!!!"
Then I would throw a hair dryer in the potty and fry his ass.

I would pour wheatgrass juice, brussel sprouts, and all manner of healthful organic food and drink into the toilet---



---if all that revolting vitamin-y goodness didn't send him or her screaming into the night, NOTHING WILL.

I would beat them and disown them and throw them out of my house! Then I would take them out of my will and make sure they couldn't come to my funeral!

Actually this is a thread parodying the "If you had a child that was gay" thread.

Just trying to be humorous. Sorry. :(

If I had a child who was a toilet-drinker, I'd get him some ice cubes and a paper umbrella.

I would probably marvel at his strong immune system, and see if he wanted me to put in some Kool-aid powder. :)

Then you could take the chips and throw them in the toilet, yelling "You wanted toilet water? There's your toilet water! Enjoy!" as you flush the chips down. :D
