A TWO-YEAR-OLD Sydney girl who ate ecstasy off her parent's floor is back in their care, despite two previous reports of concern about the child's welfare to authorities.
The girl's 29-year-old father is due in Sutherland Local Court next month charged with drug possession and supply offences.
The Daily Telegraph reports the girl ingested an ecstasy tablet last Thursday morning at her parent's Engadine home, in Sydney's south.
The Department of Community Services (DoCS) has decided the parents are fit to care for the girl, despite receiving two reports, which were not drug-related, of concern for the child's health, the newspaper reports.
When the child fell ill her mother became concerned and woke her partner, who allegedly noticed ecstasy pills on the kitchen floor and feared the girl may have eaten one.
Both parents rushed the girl to hospital and allegedly told doctors she may have ingested ecstasy.Doctors called police who accompanied the father back to the family home and later charged him.
The girl was treated and released from hospital on the same day.
