Guess teenagers will never stop doing idiotic things to fit in, i remember when i was a teen, there was this game my fellow peers around me would do to make themselves pass out. Didn't understand the hype then, and I don't get it now.

i just don't understand this whole thing at all. don't they taste like, well...soap? soap is not something that you eat. it can't be tasty. i don't get it. are they actually eating it? sucking on them? putting them in their mouths until they start melting? i'm so confused...

I don't get it either.
Add to your questions: Does it give them a high? Does it do anything pleasurable?

That is so sad. Laundry pods are not the issue here. Take them away and he will find some other attention seeking device. If he is that hungry for attention there is something seriously wrong that could go beyond taking chances doing stupid things. His parents need to intervene immediately.
