Re: O/T: The medicated child

[Guest guest]

Sadly, they won't come off of it unless they grow up and find

biomedical. I tried to explain this to someone I know, that her kid

would not need ritalin if she just stopped feeding her all those

chemicals...but changing the diet was " too hard " according to her.

So some parents don't realize there are other options, and some don't

want to be bothered.
