Ok, friends with serious child-rearing chops: I bought some My Little Ponies for The Sprog to suck on. Should I cut off the hair? It seems pretty securely attached.

Shannon: I wouldn't worry if it were for my kids.

Theresa: The hair should be fine - we haven't had any problems

Dana: I wouldn't worry either - course, Molly tried to drown twice at the pool this afternoon (and I'm all wet to prove it), so that may diminish the worth my child-rearing advice...

Me: Key word: "tried." Thanks ladies. I knew you'd have answers. :)
