Many parents prefer to give milk to the children but some countries they won't give milk but instead of this one they will give another type of drink but compare to this milk and more vitamins are in that drink so tastes also semillar so why don't give them and try to give them different ones. How many times do you give milk to them? how much of milk will be good for children?

From the time we were children, we listened to our parents tell us of all the benefits of milk and as a result, we were expected to drink at least one glass per day.
As we became older, many of us shucked the idea of drinking milk either because we felt we were too "grown" to have to drink milk, or because we had become conscious of our figures and felt milk would have a detrimental effect on that part of us. In lieu of milk, we switched to other dairy products or vitamins in order to still receive the correct intake of Vitamin D and Calcium.
Strangely, the analogy here is that if we went through that much trouble to still receive the benefits of milk, we knew that there was something in milk that our bodies were able to utilize. According to an article published on the Internet by the Newer Knowledge of Milk, there are several benefits of milk: the ability to prevent osteoporosis, hyper tension, and colon cancer. And most importantly, these benefits are derived from an intake of fluid milk, not simply vitamins or other sources.
Drinking milk also helps reduce the incidence of tooth decay. There is no evidence to support the theory that drinking chocolate milk aids in tooth decay, and as a result, allowing children to drink chocolate milk increases their consumption of milk. One of the major contributing factors to many people shucking the benefits of milk for a substitute source is the belief that drinking milk will cause them to gain weight. There is no evidence that drinking the required servings of dairy products such as milk contribute to a person being overweight.
Clearly lactose intolerant individuals need to supplement with a non-dairy product. But for everyone else, we should shy away from drinking milk. We did it when we were 5, and we can definitely do it when we are 80. The benefits of drinking milk stay the same!
The sad thing for me is my baby doesn't like milk and i need to give her another form of it like putting yogurt or fruit shake. I just don't know why and even milk chocolate or chocolate alone, she doesn't like. It seems that she want to blow it out.

milk is more healthy as it is natural and has calcium which is a must for growing health for bone,teeth for all the human body.so is a healthy habit for our children to drink milk.my girlie doesn't like too much to drink it but she eats instead cheese at least.i would like her to drink milk more often but 2 or three times a week only and it would be better to drink daily about 200 ml
