Meth Side Effects in childre

2017-05-09 05:03:59
I just received full custody of my three year old because my son and husband tested positive for meth and from my understanding my son's exposure was second hand but since then he has had problems sleeping and saying the dragon's will get him at night or left alone and especially when he goes to sleep. Is this a side affect of the meth or just regular three year old behavior.
