This is sorta a segue question on Jenn's posts and Brian's [et al] responses. When I was a child[I'm 64 3/4 yrs. young now] it was routine to take kids' tonsils out. That hasn't been the case for a good many yrs. now. Have there been any studies that address the fact that yanking those tonsils early might be a good thing? I never missed mine. Amy
