Success with any teas for children??

[Guest guest]

Has anyone found a specific type of tea to be successful in aiding severe

constipation for young children? I have read that Senna tea has a strong

laxative effect and shouldn't be used, because it can cause cramping. I am just

wondering if a very, very watered-down version could be used successfully? Or

another tea, as I like the idea of it being warm, too. And since he seems to

like warm tea, it wouldn't be too stressful for him in trying to drink it. I

feel like lately, he wants to run and hide from me whenever I come toward him

with anything to eat or drink (as all of it has been stuff he finds " icky " ... in

an effort to help him increase BMs!)
