Some children's medicines also say "do not operate heavy machinery". I guess I can't let my baby drive the car after all!

Acetamenaphen, Tylenol, is poisonous. The lethal dose is not too far above the reccommended dose. All medicines should be kept away from children. Children try too many things on their own. They are taught in school that all drugs should be treated with extreme care.

because they don't know what the dosage is and can over dose. those medicines, if an infant or toddler takes to much,benadryl Tylenol etc.. can kill them, while adult might just get a belly ache or puke.

Becuase if an infant or child gets ahold of the bottle and takes it all then can over dose. Same as an adult with regular tylonal.

Because a child with an open bottle of tylenol is prone to disaster

For the same reason there is a sign outside of drive-through fast food joints that says "Brail Menu Available on Request"!

Obviously, to keep them from drinking the whole bottle -- oh, you WERE serious, right? Or did you just waste 5 points for a DUMB question?

because all kids want to do is experiment and something is a bad experiment to have with anybody
