So my sister who has no kids told me to give my 2 year old melatonin just because he is having a…

I have no words.

@rikki.ferguson why

@ssdj4 I just hate when some ppl think a solution to getting a child to sleep is give them some meds.

My mom tried it with my niece and it worked but the only problem with it is as there bodies get used to it you'll have to keep uping the dosage to get them to go to sleep and then their bodies will start to depend on it to sleep which is bad

@rikki.ferguson I hate it too. Like he's a kid. He's gonna have rough nights. We are on vacation. We are in a higher altitude. We aren't with his daddy until the 10th. We couldn't find his security blanket. It was gonna happen. Medicine isn't a solution for this rare occasion.

@tinkerbe11 I refuse to give kids meds unless there is no other option. We just had to wear him out a bit more.

@ssdj4, I think that's a way better solution than meds

@tinkerbe11 it definitely is. I'll take staying up later any day over unnecessarily drugging a kid.
