OK, I am currently working three jobs...one as a Legal Assistant (got my second promotion in 3 months today...I am now the senior legal assistant, I wait tables at a restaurant and my hubby and I started our own business...first job is on 8/4/07!!!
Anyway, I was at work today (waiting tables) and a mom, dad, and 2-3 year old came in. They ate and finished around 955pm. Then I saw the Mother give the 2-3 year old NIGHTTIME which is the generic brand of Nyquil....Need I say I don't know how much she gave, but it is an ADULT MEDICATION!
I politely said "what did you just give him" She said Night Time it helps him sleep...I said in the politest way I could
"DO YOU REALIZE THAT NIGHT TIME IS AN ADULT MEDICATION, AND IN YOUR SON'S BODY IT ACTS AN ANESTHESIA AND YOUR SON IS BEING DRUGGED TO GO TO SLEEP. I ALSO SAID IN A VERY POLITE WAY...DO YOU REALIZE THAT THEIR ARE NOW PUBLIC REPORTS THAT SHOW THAT THIS CAN CAUSE YOUR CHILD TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK, RESPIRATORY ARREST, STROKES, STUN HIS GROWTH, MAKE HIM ADDICTIVE TO SLEEPING MEDICATIONS, ETC. I ALSO SAID VERY POLITELY, I AM A LEGAL ASSISTANT AND DO YOU REALIZE THAT IF YOU SON DIES AN AUTOPSY COULD BE PERFORMED IN WHICH YOU COULD BE CHARGED WITH
...CHILD NEGLECT, CHILD ABUSE, DEATH OF A CHILD, AND A SLEW OF OTHER THINGS????
I SAID I THINK YOU SHOULD CONTACT THE PEDIATRICIAN BECAUSE ON THE BOTTLE OF THE MEDICATION YOU JUST GAVE HIM IT SAYS 12 YEARS AND OLD AND YOU JUST GAVE IT TO A TODDLER!"
SHE SAID "I WILL ASK THE DOCTOR." I TOLD HER JUST READ THE BOTTLE.
Was I wrong? I hate parents that are too lazy to take care of their kids! Keep your legs closed! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
