Exactly what I was going to say - my thought it to only induce vomiting
at home for poisons and toxins. Anything else could do more harm coming back up than going through the digestive tract.
As a side note, Catherine chewed up a colored pencil once that no one knew had been dropped behind the couch. We found the little shards everywhere and I freaked. Everything passed, though and it turned out fine. Now I ALWAYS move the furniture when I clean so I make sure to get everything up.
