Somebody was asking a question about flossing a child's teeth and people replied that you should floss early on. Has anybody had experience with this? I mean, how should I do this? I don't think my kid will like this at all. Any tips and tricks?

No suggestions on how to get your child to floss, but I read this great article which explained why we really need to force this behaviour of flossing.
