Apparently if you pour out the syrup onto the floor and then let it half-dry it becomes sticky and then place said kids on the sticky syrup it helps them build muscles that help them run. It also prepares for the starting blocks used in athletic races.

Geddit?

I'm more of a short-term type person. Feed them half a bottle and get a decent night's rest.

Been there, done that.

Apparently all parents are terrible. To some extent. Apparently.

Being blessedly child-free I can not honestly comment.

But I have a feeling you'll identify with this.

No, I mean that, when you have those nights when you both really need sleep, you just slip the little dude(tte) a teaspoon or two of Panado. Although it kinda backfired on us with the redhead. Gave her a rush rather than putting her to sleep. Calpol knocked her out, however.

hehe

In the good ol' days it was a thimble or two of whiskey. OR Vicks Medinite.
