I guess I have a different point of view about it. I have a 10 year old son that is autistic. His dr. recommended to me last year that we try Zoloft. After hearing and researching the homicidal/suicidal reactions in children on AD's, I decided against it.I think parent's need to be aware that this is a very real risk. If the media didn't report that piece of the puzzle, something would be missing.
Nobody can say for certain that this boy's medication caused him to react this way, but from my own personal experience on AD's and how bizarre I felt as an adult, Christian woman.. I can only imagine how I would've reacted as a child with all those weird thoughts racing through my head.
