[quote=Anonymous]My sister is a pediatric neuropsych. She says the correct dose for a child is less than 1mg. Start by cutting a 1mg gummy into quarters, and go up a quarter as needed. Rarely do children need a full 1mg. She also says it is very useful for specific sleep changes like daylight savings, travel, etc., but should not be used nightly for most neurotypical kids with normal sleep issues. You can build a tolerance and it can impact hormones. Obviously an individual decision for special needs cases. She also said it's very difficult to overdose, and even 10 mg isn't going to hurt a child. You really only have to worry when children get into an adult dosage bottle. [/quote]
