Yes, my children (especially my son) can be challenging and yes I would like them to really just rest sometimes, but give them a sippy cup of wine to accomplish this no. Of course this did happen in Atlanta where a 41 year old babysitter gave a 9 month old wine in his sippy cup to make the child fall asleep. The child's grandmother came home to find the baby in a lifeless state and when taken to the hospital was found to have a blood alcohol level of .33. Just to put that in perspective that is more than 4 times the legal limit for adults. Yes the baby did survive thank goodness.
This incident happened in 2009 and the babysitter confessed and was sentenced to 8 years in prison and 4 years of probation.
