Google Searches & Job Hunting

I’m really surprised just how many people out there are searching for tips on giving their toddlers Benadryl for travel. Let’s just say of all of the different Google searches that lead people here, that’s the #1 search, hands down.

I guess there are a lot of parents scared that their toddlers will be screaming monsters on vacation. It always makes me nervous to think others are taking advice from me. I feel an urge to end any bit of advice with: Remember, this is my crazy kid. Your mileage may vary.

So, to those searching, I give you this: the dose is usually 1 teaspoon, but always double-check. Also, please consider this as a last resort. It does work for many kids, making them drowsy and easier to deal with.

But, remember that a small percentage of kids go bouncing-off-the-walls-head-spinning-peasoup-spitting-Exorcist-hyperactive on Benadryl. Mine was one of them. Do you really want to play that parenting Russian roulette game and risk making it even worse?

In other news, Aaron had an interview today. Cross your fingers, folks. If he gets this job, he could be forced to go on a cruise each year for work, and his family are welcome to come along.

Oh, darn.
