Giving Kids Benadryl to Sleep on Airplanes: Good Move or Needless Medicating?
Just read an interesting article on Salon.com (http://www.salon.com/2012/03/21/the_benadryl_solution/) about whether or not it makes sense to give kids Benadryl for the sake of getting them to sleep on an airplane. I travel cross country with my young kids a lot and have never done this--though many friends have suggested that I do. Sure, sometimes my daughters have cried and maybe been disruptive to other passengers, but I never thought it warranted giving them un-necessary medication. What do you all think about this?
