I work with kids with the cited illnesses and I can tell you, they are being drugged so that "people can deal with the behaviors." Instead of taking behavioral intervention routes or working more in depth with the children, parents, are choosing to let them be prescribed potent medications.
Do you recognize we barely understand the ramifications of these medicines in adults, let alone the developing minds of children.
I have battled colleagues continuously and unfortunately medications are winning. The sad thing is, that the children are going to pay the price.
