It is important, I agree, but did anyone notice the number of kids on these anti-depressants?

It's sad that so many children are feeling the effects of depression all ready. It shocked me to see the figures. Are doctors just prescribing them or are the kids REALLY in need of the meds?

If they're in need, then why? What is wrong that is causing such distress.

Makes me just want to crawl back into my hole and get more depressed over this one. [sigh]
