I have been giving my 3 year old sleeping pills for almost a year now and tried to spot giving him them last week and he can't sleep now. My sister said to give him a little beer to make him fall asleep and ween him off of that. Any suggestions?

Get that babe to a pediatrician and yourself to a psychiatrist!! And take your sister along with you!! If you don't have a pediatrician then get that babe to the nearest emergency room!!
Why the %^^&* are you giving a 3 year old a sleeping pill anyway?! Sure, go ahead, wean him off sleepers by giving him an alcoholic beverage! What are you gonna use to wean him off that??
If I knew who and where you were I would turn you over to Child Protection Services so fast your head would swim!!! What you are doing is child abuse!
I hope someone recognizes your handle and turns you in!
And my God protect and bless that poor child!!

Here is what you do: Depending on the dosage of the medication you were giving him, cut it in half and do that for a week. Then do that in half for two weeks. This is really how to stop it, OR...
Week 1. Regular dosage every other night
Week 2. Half doesage ever other night
Week 3. 1/4 normal dosage every other night.
This should help. It does With any meds I want to get ppl off of. Also, for sleep methods try meditation...i know it sounds weird, but it works.
Hope it works

I kind of hate to ruin every body's fun here but this guy is almost certainly making $hit up to see if he can get some one to panic. He's had the cat people all in tizzy about feeding the neighbors Persian to a pair of Dobermans for a while then he comes over here with this wild tale. Check out the Cats section before responding.

I heard that if you feed Doberman meat to small children it will help them sleep. This could save you a lot of money in sleeping pill perscriptions and beer. Or better yet, throw your kid off your roof and see if lands on it's feet?

Why would you ever give a 3 yr old sleeping pills??? OR BEER???
Are you crazy???
Do you want to be a bad parent???
Consult a doctor, PLEASE for the sake of your child.
NO child should be taking any drug, unless prescribed by their physician!!!!!

Yeah, I'm so sure this true. Why don't you go ask Dr. Laura? She'll tell you what to do.
