Yes, I say this sometimes, but only as comic relief to fellow parents frustrated when kids are rambunctious and won't sleep, or are in the midst of temper tantrums. Just a joke between Moms.
Unfortunately, this is actually in the news. Wow, there are no words!!
Apparently, an Oklahoma daycare was giving it to babies to make them sleep so their jobs would be easier, apparently. Luckily, the daycare was shutdown and the owner is facing felony charges.
I take it for sleep sometimes, but I would NEVER EVER consider giving it to a child of any age (even The Boy who is a teenager) unless truly needed for allergic reaction or allergies, and only as recommended.
