i dont know how old any of you are,but when i was a kid in school (from 1st to 5th)grade they used to give us a small white FLUORIDE pill every morning.this was back in the late 70's early 80's. i was living in PA. at that time.anyone else remember these little pills of poison they used to feed us?
I lived in a small country town in PA where everyone had well water, so no way to get fluoride in it. They gave us those stupid pills every day too (yes, this was in the 70s). We had to line up a the water fountain in school and take them. They tasted horrible. The pills were just small enough to push down one of the holes in the water fountain and that's what a lot of us kids did. Other would just pocket them or toss them down the hall.
When I was in 6th grade most kids at school signed up for free daily fluoride rinse called the 'swish' program. My mother refused to sign the permission slip and I was left out, luckily.
good Mom, mine on the other hand believed what the school was telling her,and had me eat them.cant blame her tho a lot of parents did the same then.the school said it was for our health and many bought into it without a second thought.
