Our 11 year old was trying to help, and accidentally sprayed many of
our plants with ivy killer (she thought it was bug spray).

The hell with your plants..what is the matter with you?? You are one
incredibly irresponsible parent to leave such poisons in reach of
your kids! I'd be more worried about whether my kid got any exposure
than the damn plants! Your priorities are seriously screwed up!

None of the rest of us have ever set something down and had it picked up
by our kids. (FYI, there are instructions on the container on what to do
if the chemicals come in contact with your skin.) Your response is way out
of line.

Yes, we all saw the sitcom where the baby died after secondary contact
with a garden spray but this is not a sitcom and we know nothing about
what happened except that a kid sprayed a plant with ivy killer.

Sue, do you have any children? If so, what are their ages?
