Guest guest Posted December 19, 2001 Report Share Posted December 19, 2001 and children. I agree with Chris in that i use teatree on my kids. Occassionally. For dirty cuts and scratches. All else I use lavender and roman chamomile BUT. I don't use it on kids under 18 months. The incidences of sensitization with TT is such that i really don't want to use it on the really young ones. Just my 2¢ worth. Sorry for the typing, only have 1 hand ;-) Cheers!

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2001 Report Share Posted December 19, 2001 Hey Chris- Kathleen... I have used it on kids judiciously its just that there are equally effective oils that are gentler-like you mentiioned, and it seems to me it would aggravate excema- it is great for cuts- but I usually go with a lavender for the littles... :-) michelle - Kathleen Petrides <petrides5 Tuesday, December 18, 2001 10:16 PM Re: Any ideas?/Teatree... > and children. > > I agree with Chris in that i use teatree on my kids.
