Baby Dental care for a four year old with BBTD
My sister son has BBTD he is only four years old but you can see that his teeth are bad. When he spend time at my house I make brush his teeth after he eat and he fights me with this saying that his mom does not make him brush.
I say something to my sister and she said he puts up a fight so she does not bother with it. What can I do to make her know the important of child teeth care without it turning into a fight?

Good luck on that one. I find out whenever I use to give my advise about my sister kids it was a fight waiting to happen. I learn to mind my own business.
Now I am not saying any bad on you but this is her son how can you tell her she needs to do better if she going to reply well he does not want to.. Kids do not want to do a lot things but that should not mean it is acceptable.
The best you could do is tell her the importance of good oral care and that you think her son is lacking it. Suggest she take him to the dentist. If his teeth are really bad brush now is not going to make them any better.

Ask yourself if it was your son and your sister wanted to tell you what you do to her how would you handle it. And be honest with yourself.
I agree that I may very well hurt her feeling but then you have to do what is you may think is best for you and then be prepared to handle the consequences of your actions. If you truly feel your sister is not taking care of her kids teeth then tell her if you think it will make a difference.
If you are worried about what will happen when you do then don’t it is that easy.
