OT but......

Although use of melatonin for children hasn't been studied near enough, no credible studies have come to any of the conclusions you claim.

It has been safely used for decades and is non habit forming. Because of that it can safely be used for up to two years. It does not impede or restrict the body's ability to form natural melatonin and no credible study has ever concluded it is dangerous.
