I was and still am on "medication" ;-) People seem to have a phobia about prescription drugs, but don't let your own phobia carry over to the detriment of you kids.

All this is saying is to be careful, because these subject drugs can do harm to kids that don't really need them.

@laidesman777: Agreed. If a kid with ADD needs treatment, why not go natural?

i am so glad i came upon this video my son is having diffulculties in kindergarden made me change my whole way of thinking thanks so much

[joel10000a]

Sure, it may have helped you, but the point of the video is that many kids apparently do NOT need it, but are prescribed it anyway, and the side effects can be bad for them.

Try less sugar, before medication...

Its so sad... My friend is like this and he is totally a zombie now.

[laidesman777]

honestly, all the drugs for A.D.H.D. just turns you into a zombie. It hurts you more than anything. i got put on allot of different kinds of drugs for it, and i just felt more depressed and didn't want to socialize, and i just felt..pretty well dead inside when i was on them. no kid should ever be put on redalin, or dexterin, or aderal ever.

I used to have ADD when i was young and the doctors wanted to put me on drug medication.
