In a troubling development out of Texas, reports have emerged about teachers allegedly using “sleepy stickers” to make children fall asleep at school. These stickers, said to contain melatonin and other adult-targeted ingredients, were reportedly given to students in an attempt to calm them down during the school day. The revelation came when parents found the stickers at home and learned from their children that these small patches had made them feel unusually drowsy.
Parents are rightfully upset, and the situation has sparked outrage across the community. The effects of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep, are typically safe for adults, but the use of such substances on children—without parental consent or proper medical guidance—raises significant concerns. The incident has prompted an investigation by both the school and local authorities, and some teachers have been placed on leave pending the outcome of the inquiry.
The teachers were “put on leave” …
Why the Fuk have they not been fired, criminally charged with, at the very least, child abuse⁉️⁉️⁉️
