#2 - Why are teachers not being trained to also DEAL with children rather then push them into drugs? I'm SORRY but, half the problem is society as a whole wants to push it on the other.....nobody wants to take responsibility, yes sometimes parents get to wits end..........thus the reason I am almost 30 and have not had KIDS. WITH THAT SAID.

I dated and lived with a man who had two children. One of whom had been diagnosed with ADD - They gave her ritalin which did you know....is a sister drug to a methamphetamine? So..........all it is is clean meth? This child would take this drug and 2 hours later be passed out - she SO OVERREACTED TO IT.

Then, they gave her medication to help her sleep at night. My mom was a nurse and was totally freaked out when they found out it was a blood pressure medication of some sort and what it did was lower the blood pressure to put the girl to sleep. I'M SORRY BUT IT IS SICK!

When in the end, this girl's mother and father got tired of the drugs, started counseling with her, forced her in to softball (at first which she turned out to love), realized she actually was misunderstood and had a learning disorder and that turned to be a big reason for her acting out.

SO - with that said. Kids will be kids. They're annoying, their a pain in the butt, they get on your nerves. Some people just shouldn't have children I truly believe. Sadly, we don't think about that while "rolling in the hay". Parents also make VERY, VERY sad attempts to PUSH their children off on the school system. I have a good friend that is an elementary teacher and one that is a Middle School teacher. The things she tells me are very disturbing.

So while yes, I see that parents may get to the end of their rope, in the end, they chose to have the child and it is their responsibility to EDUCATE themselves and not just "trust" what a doctor or teacher says. If someone tells them to go jump off a bridge........are they gonna do that too?
