[Everything doTERRA] peppermint question

Someone asked me whether it's true that peppermint oil can cause respiratory arrest in children. I'd never heard of such a concern. Wikipedia has this statement:

"Due to the menthol constituent, topical use of peppermint oil around the facial or chest areas of infants and young children, especially around the nose, can induce apnea, laryngeal and bronchial spasm, acute respiratory distress with cyanosis, or respiratory arrest."

I was wondering if there is any truth to it?

Thanks
