It's not always the parents. There are cases of childhood schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders hat require such meds. While at time there are cases of over medication, its not always the case so to label such meds as bad because some docs dont knwo what they are doing is kind of wreckless. Parents need to take more interest in there children and learn to manage an control certain behaviors because in most cases of childhood psychology the docs are going of the parents account of what is going on, not the childs.
