Has anyone seen (real) turtles swimming in the jumping fish pond across from BTRR? I saw a turtle swimming in there yesterday! I didn't know they had turtles in there.

If you also want to donate a smaller amount, or if you don't have texting [because I know some don't.], another option in conduitmission.org. A friends husband and his friend started this a few years ago, and they've built so much in Haiti from donations and are now working towards helping Japan as much as they can. - Gummy83.0 #3244 3-11-11 10:03AMLike Reply

Is it okay or normal for a parent to give their kid Benadryl to calm the kid down? My SIL is laughing at how she gave her 3 yr old son Benadryl to calm him down tonight. I guess this regularly happens. I feel kind of disgusted by this but More...
Medicine should not be given when a kid is not sick. Benedryl is for allergies not to make kids sleep. - Mrsblue692.4 #146 2-25-11 6:59PMLike Reply
Yeah, he is perfectly healthy and has no allergies. She gave him a huge piece of chocolate cake and of course he got really hyped up. I feel bad for him. Now he has been crying the past 10 minutes and I can only wonder why. - kirsten!144.8 #2374 2-25-11 7:05PMLike Reply
That's not ok and even if it's uncomfortable you really should say something if not to her then to dad or grandma or someone. That's nauseating! Just my opinion. - CravingDisney150.1 #2296 2-25-11 10:00PMLike Reply
Had a coworker who's adopted son has a disease (can't remember what it's called) She found out the hard way that he completely flips out when on an airplane! The pilot had to come out and tell her if she couldn't control him he would drop them off at the closest airport, and he did! Her son is about 8 and in order to finish their trip she had to benadryl him up just to get him back on the plane. That is about the only time I have ever agreed with a parent giving their kid medicine that wasn't needed! I have never givin my kids anything they did not need. And when they do need something for like a fever or something I try to only give them what they need to break the fever or use non drug remedies if possible! - MedievalMickey662.8 #157 2-25-11 10:08PMLike Reply
