I think about that all the time, how different my life would have been if I had access to medication at a young age.
are you sure? We don't know how today's kids on anti-psychotics will turn up.

I am not for rough discipline. But I am not for doping kids up without much else either. Meds would not give you social skills (seriously, if there's ever pill that gives you social grace, I will nom it in handfuls). It would alone not help in the situation. It might be just another tool of your parents for not so ideal parenting. So instead of humilitating you by letting you wait outside of restaurant, they'd up you anti-psychotics.

Dealing with problem kids requires wanting to deal with them actually. My teacher sent me to ****ing shrink who wanted me medicated when I was grief stricken after my fathers death. Meds and designer's clothes would solve it, according to her.

Unlike others, I am glad I was not doped up (and dressed up in clothes made by modern age slaves). I didn't learn social skills, but I dragged myself through education. It was not easy, but eh. I learned to cope, as there was nothing else to do. I will see what comes. I try not to have what ifs. It's never to late to live anyways.
