      This.

      For a 4-5 year old, without any context of where the item came from, they might think it's some sort of candy. It's bright blue/orange, heck, it could be a Gusher (assuming those still exist). Yes it would be best if they checked with a parent what it is, but for a 4-5 year old they can still make impulsive decisions.

      For a teenager, banning it isn't going to do any good. They know at that point what it is. That's the whole point to them, that they're biting into something they shouldn't. If you get rid of the pods, for all we know next month there's a Tide Powder challenge or a Tide Liquid challenge. The point to them isn't that it looks like candy and they're confused, the point is they're teenagers and purposely trying to be idiots.

        If you're 13 years old, and you're stupid enough to eat laundry detergent*....well, you probably deserve what you get.

          yeah, I don't see the problem here. Natural selection has pretty much been eliminated for humans, so this might help us as a species.

Laundry soap, pods, bleach, Downey, those go in the washer, not your mouth. Pot roast, vegetables, various snacks, those go in your mouth, not the washer. I would hope a halfway decent parent can teach that lesson by about 1st grade, give or take.

            Look. When I was 13, I was a knucklehead. So were you. So was every other boy who was 13 at one point in time. I did a mini-****ton of stupid stuff. But I had enough sense to not eat something that wasn’t what could reasonably be considered “food”.
            Um no. THe parents teach all sorts of things- don't use drugs, drink to excess, have sex without a condom. Kids do that all stuff all the time no matter how much the parent beats them over the head. This is no different.

            ANd they have been trying to ban those pod things since they came out because of the little kids. The companies responded by changing packaging

              The local Walgreen's here has now allegedly put the pods behind glass.

              I can't wait to get carded for laundry detergent.

                    people who, when they don't understand an answer, just ask the same question again.

                    if you are going to ask me the exact same question - you are getting the exact same answer.

                    if you don't understand the answer, then you need to ask a DIFFERENT QUESTION - not just repeat the same thing. obviously you didn't get it, but if you just repeat yourself, I don't know WHAT you didn't get. ask me a question about what I said or the piece you didn't understand. do not just repeat the same effing thing.

                      Only reason I ever ask the same question is because the person didn't answer the specific question I asked, but rather a tangent.

                            More often than not this is a client who doesn't like the answer you gave them, so they try asking again in a different way, hoping that they can catch you saying something contradictory.

                              “I think that it’s stupid that anyone would even attempt to eat laundry detergent,” student John Hilton told ABC 4 News. “That’s why I’m going to college, I consider myself more intelligent than that.”
