I have Rocks for 1dn

Rocks - regular moves
Rocks - Cocaine - not sure why child off ?
Question Author
Thank you so much. Agreed, it looks like rocks but share the same doubts.
Would it perhaps be that Rocks are regular moves to get child off to sleep?
The best wordplay that I can come up with is:

Regular moves (ROCKS) but remove S (son = child) and we get ROCK (cocaine)!
Question Author
Thanks Crofter, that makes sense. Can't believe I'm so naive as not to realise that rock is cocaine.
I think sarumite has come up with the right explanation
In the cold light of day I agree that sarumite has the right twist ~ anyway the asnwer is truly ROCKS!
