In large quantities and the red leaves are worse than the green. Because babies and pets are so much smaller than adults it takes less to make them sick. But they would throw up long before it would do any permanent damage or anything.

Yes, they are. If eaten, they will cause gastrointestinal upsets (stomach ache, throwing up etc.) They aren't deathly poisonous, but you don't want a baby munching on them, because of their low weight.

That is a myth. If a human or animal eats a lot of the plant, it can make them sick. The plant doesn't taste good, so not much of it will get eaten.

They are definitely poisonous to cats. To adult humans, they'd be fine, but keep your children away to be safe. They're so much smaller than adults.
