OK so this has NOTHING to do with weight loss... but I wanted to use this to ask what you guys think.... (sorry for the novel- I consider you guys my friends and I needed to hear what you guys think of this!!!!)
My daughter is 3 yo, she is super active. (That's her in the picture with me!) It is a massive fight to get her to sleep or take a nap. I have her in day care 2 times a week- prior to this place she was at a very nice place but was always getting very sick... pneumonia etc. So I needed to take her out of there. So I asked friends etc about any recommendations and received the name of these two women who were highly recommended. I met them, liked them and decided it would be a good place. They had glowing reviews. Every time I would pick her up I would ask them how she did, "she slept wonderfully." I have been puzzled.... my child? Even in the nice fancy day care they fought to have her sleep! They said "she just liked laying next to the other kids." Hmmmm..... ok... today I was sitting on the couch and my daughter was wrapping my siberian husky up in a blanket and petting her telling her to go to sleep. She then ran over to her play kitchen, got a cup and said "want your cherry bubblegum?" She had Lexi (my dog) drink from the cup. "Now you sleep better." The light went off. I asked her if she liked cherry bubblegum, she said ""I asked where she has had it... she said school (that's what we call day care). Then she said after dinner (she calls lunch dinner). I then let it go and later said "is cherry bubblegum something you eat or drink" and she looked at me with an odd expression and she said "Tylenol" (ALL medicines that are liquid are called Tylenol to her- even antibiotics). Again I tried not to give any expression at all- "Why did you take tylenol? Did you have a headache?" She said... "NO it make me sleep better, like this" she threw herself down on the couch and pretended to snore. "I drink it real fast!" (This statement is something I have heard for a long time that I wondered where it came from). Later I asked her, "what do you do at school..." she said nap and again pretended to sleep.
I am furious.... beyond belief. I am completely convienced that they are drugging the children , MY CHILD, with cherry bubblegum Benedyl to make them sleep. I even went to look up Benedryl online and guess what- comes in cherry flavored bubblegum (WE NEVER buy that flavor- only grape! And she had never had benedryl because she doesn't have allergies!) I am now looking back over all sorts of conversations and she had told me before and I just didn't get it.....
I am speechless... and furious.
