[quote=Anonymous]To the idiot who said “melatonin isn’t heroin” — just imagine for a second that your daycare provider or nanny was giving your infant melatonin so he or she would sleep through the whole day instead of actually caring for them. Is that child abuse? If yes, then giving a plateful of melatonin to an unknowing child, is equivalently as horrifying. OP, please tell the parents. Here’s a script:

I need to talk to you about something very uncomfortable and frankly, horrifying. I picked X up from your house and he was abnormally sleepy and vomited while we were in the car. I understand that he was given a bag of candy gummies last night, and after he had finished them, the other boys at the sleepover laughed at the prank they just pulled on him: which was mixing in at least 15 melatonin gummies with the normal gummies so X would unknowingly eat it. He felt the effects fairly immediately and fell asleep, and then vomited overnight as well. I took him to ER/Urgent Care immediately after he vomited in the car. As I’m sure you’d agree, this is an absolutely unacceptable, completely horrifying “prank”, and I am planning on telling the other parents what happened. The consequences could have been far worse if X had choked on his vomit while sleeping, or if his body had an even more severe reaction. Frankly, X really likes the boys and does not want me to talk to you about this, but if he did something like this, I would want to know. [/quote]
