You are ignoring the fact some kids do well on AD's and need them. I needed ritalin as a child and am glad I took it. Why hamstring all children
if some have problems ? Seems like this is an issue with proper prescribing of meds and not the meds, themselves.So, if you advocate cutting off meds for kids, will you be there to pick up the pieces ? Will you be there after the suicide ?
From you armchair it is easy to say there are other oprions ? How is counceling going to help
a Bi Polar child. DP is an organic, medical condition.
