Suri Cruise has been stepping out with her daddy in NYC these last few days.

The child is now 2 years old.

Isn't that too old to still be sucking on the bottle??????

      Absolutely - she should be drinking out of a regular cup or even a sippy cup by now.

    20. elyse says – reply to this


      20

      no, definitely not. at that age kids are transitioning to solids and still need the calories from milk.

    23. Kina says – reply to this


      23

      yeahh she is a little to too old to be using a bottle but all kids are different and they stop using the bottle at their own time but tomkat should start teaching her how to use a cup and i think suri and brangelina kid will be the most beautiful people girl when there teens i hope they become best friends!! and suri wil sooo marry a beckham and brangelina's baby will marry kingston!!

    24. Belle says – reply to this

      wuuuuttt

    26. Lilo says – reply to this


      26

      Doctors suggest they be weaned off the bottle by the time they start walking which is around 1-year. They should also start being weaned off pacifiers around the same time.

    27. lj says – reply to this


      27

      Usually around 1 they want you to start transitioning to a cup from a bottle. She will have what they call bottle tooth rot!

    28. Mary says – reply to this


      28

      A little old, but it is probably the only thing that soothes the child.

    29. mom from nj says – reply to this


      29

      YES! Most pediatricians recommend babies not have a bottle after 1 year! She's got to get rid of it before it starts to kill her teeth.

      NO PEREZ, IT ISN'T

    31. Judi says – reply to this


      31

      Is it a Scientology thing?I saw that Leah Remini's daughter is almost 4 and she still has a bottle,shes a Scientologist,so maybe it is one of their "beliefs"All I know,is it looks ridiculous,both my girls were off the bottles by age 1,but I know everyone is different.

    32. awood says – reply to this


      32

      haha i think you're right!

    33. parcon4 says – reply to this

    39. kre says – reply to this


      39

      Yes… time for a sippy cup!

    40. mhm says – reply to this


      40

      yea

    41. Mandiee says – reply to this


      41

      I have one kid that is 4 and one on the way so speaking as a mom she should start weening soon. I have seen kids that are the same age as my oldest with a bottle. Sucking is a hard habbit to break!

    42. Kate says – reply to this


      42

      Absolutely far too old. She should have been switched onto a sippy cup by MAXIMUM 18 months and then be on a regular cup by 2.5 years old.

      Milk or juice in a bottle, constantly, leads to tooth decay. Daddy Cruise should listen to his pediatric dentist!

      no, not at all.

    49. Miranda says – reply to this


      49

      Nah, still normal.

    50. michelel says – reply to this


      50

      not at all…2 is still bottle time

    51. Reno Girl says – reply to this


      51

      I would think a sippy cup but some kids use the bottle as a soother and it is more like a safety blanket or stuffed animal. With all the paparazzi flashing lights at her I am sure she needs the bottle occasionally. Give the kid a break and the parents too!

    52. Baby Doc says – reply to this


      52

      Pediatricians recommend that bottles are discontinued at 1 year of age.

    53. Anja says – reply to this


      53

      Actually, in stressed situations (as I imagine this is for her) or for cuddling, it is accepted that 2 year olds still use the bottle. Although, not for that much longer.

    54. megan says – reply to this


      54

      yes. they are supposed to stop around age 1.

    55. Lisa says – reply to this


      55

      She should be up to a sippy cup now.

    56. Stanford Child Dev Professor says – reply to this


      56

      Not really…As long as they brush Suri's teeth before she goes to sleep then she should be fine. The problem with bottles is that the juice sits on the teeth all night and no one ever brushes the child's teeth.
      Sucking in a young child is very important. It actually stimulates brain development. Bottles, blankets, binkys etc all act as a stress reliever and the sucking motion is a source of comfort. You take the bottle away when THE CHILD is ready otherwise not satisfying the sucking sensation will lead to oral fixations later on in life, such as smoking and eating disorders.

      There you have it! Keep that bottle Suri! Stimulate all sorts of brain development!

      57

      Um why yes it is Perez! My kids were off bottles and onto sippy cups by 2. Shame on Tom! haha.

    58. Amy says – reply to this


      58

      Yeah she should be using a sippy cup! I work with two year olds and if any of them have a bottle I tell the parent not to send it!

    59. Ashley says – reply to this


      59

      Um…it's due time for a sippy cup…that's just weird. And holding her with a blanket around her? She's not an infant anymore…her body is doing quite well regulating its own temperature.

    60. sm says – reply to this


      60

      not necessarily, perez!

    61. Angeline says – reply to this


      61

      Yeah. She should definitely have a sippy cup by now.

    62. momma says – reply to this

    63. carizo805 says – reply to this

    64. Joe says – reply to this


      64

      Sippy Cup at 2 years old is fine.

      Bottle at 2 years old means parents need to let the child grow up.

    65. Angie says – reply to this


      65

      Yeah she is too old for the bottle. It's time for a sippy cup hello!!! don't they teach them that at Scientology camp?school?whatever they go to???

    66. Chase says – reply to this


      66

      I am wondering if it's a Scientology thing….just read in the People magazine that Leah Remni (who also practices Scientology) still lets her daughter have around 8 bottles a night. She's around 4 years old. As a mother of 2 young children, this is weird!!

    72. crystal renteria says – reply to this


      72

    74. KoKo says – reply to this


      74

    75. Perez Girl says – reply to this


      75

      YES! By now she should be in to tippy cups…besides I think she is OLDER than they are saying, somethin' aint right with that kid.

    76. canadiangirl says – reply to this


      76

    84. cr says – reply to this


      84

      It´s Not!!!!!!!!!!

    85. anonymous says – reply to this


      85

      UH, YEAH THAT'S TOO OLD…..

      BUT……………

      Scientologist believe the child is in charge and can do whatever they want…therefore, she can drink from a bottle until she's 25 if she wants to. They do NOT force their children to follow rules or do anything

    86. lindy says – reply to this


      86

      no…2 years old is not too old to suck a bottle. LEAVE THEM ALONE, PEREZ.

    87. erik sosa says – reply to this


      87

      not if its only done at events. It's a managable solution for anight on the town.

    88. jerkface jones says – reply to this


      88

      second!!!!

    89. leah says – reply to this


      89

      Some kids still have bottles at 5. It is not recommended for them to have them after they get teeth but many parents give their kids bottles way beyond the recommended time lines.

    90. Mama2Iggy says – reply to this


      90

      As a mother of an almost two year old who never received a bottle, I'll say "Yes."

    91. sasha says – reply to this


      91

      NOO!! IT IS NOT! SHES STILL A BABY DUMBASS

    92. huh says – reply to this


      92

      that type of bottle is meant for a newborn.

    93. a mom says – reply to this


      93

      yes….usually try to get babies totally off the bottle by about 18 months…

    94. wang says – reply to this


      94

      I don't see the big deal. My daughter is 20 months and still likes her milk in a bottle. She drinks water out of sippys and regular cups but I let her have bottles because she likes it. who cares?

    95. lellyxbelle says – reply to this


      95

      at least its not the boob

    96. girlboy says – reply to this


      96

      HEY O

      no not too old!

    97. brittbritt says – reply to this


      97

      FIRST! that is definitely too old to be drinking out of a bottle. her teeth are going to be fucked up. i guess scientologists don't believe in dentists either.

    98. Cazzzyyy says – reply to this


      98

      im not too sure but i heard that scientologists must give their kids whatever they want so maybe thats the case here

    99. mae says – reply to this


      99

      she JUST turned two. sippy cups and bottles are completely normal. leave the child alone.

    100. Momof3 says – reply to this


      100

      No it is NOT too old for a bottle- leave her alone!
