Medieval torture device

To most this may be a bulb syringe but to any mom who has ever used on on her child, it is nothing short of a medieval torture device. He doesn't even wan to touch it. This instrument of torture as brought him so much misery.
He relents and holds it.
I think he realizes that as long as it is in his hand I can't torture him with it.
Motor Boat has a bit of a cold and I hope that is all it is. I had to suck his nose out a few times and he wasn't crazy about it. Poor guy.
