Dear Z,
On behalf of the Parental Committee on Food Consumption, I would like to thank you for your recent interest in, and ingestion of, kiwi fruit. As you may know, kiwi fruit is a very nutritious food, full of vitamin c and antioxidants, and we were all quite pleased that you took such an avid interest in it.
Unfortunately, we were unaware of the kiwi's laxative effect.
We regret to inform you that there will be no more consumption of kiwi fruit (at least, not in such large quantities) until you are capable of dealing with the intestinal output with no help from the Committee. We were dismayed to see said output and wish to forget it's quantity and quality and pungency as soon as possible.
As you have noticed, the remaining fruit in question have been hidden from view. This is for your protection. Your earnest requests for them at the supermarket, while cute, will most certainly continue to be denied.
Regretfully,
Your Clueless But Hopeful Mama
Co-Chair, Parental Committee on Food Consumption.

Committee may also wish to add overzealous blueberry consumption to the list.
Z has never had problems with blueberries but I'll file that away for future reference!
