    Once again, you know NOTHING. My child eats protein, fruit, veggies, milk, juice and very little carbs. I guess the fact that she stopped napping at 6 WEEKS old was because she was getting too many carbs???? You make yourself look like a fool when you speak of which you obviously know nothing

  • @annodnehoc I do know something, most parents in america feed there children carb loaded breakfasts that are covered in SUGAR. ADD is a fucking joke. Feed your kids the right foods and give them the attention they need. I can gurantee you that they won't have ADD

  • @SkiFantic

    Until you have a child struggling with AD/HD, DO NOT OPEN YOUR MOUTH. You know NOTHING.

  • ADD/ADHD is not fucking disorder. It is just a way to sell your children something because they are "hyper". Correct me if im wrong, but the majority of kids are hyper and have troubles focusing. Everyone grows out of it

  • wrong i took one and i didnt make me feel speedy at alll it just made me slow down and not eat and sleep

  • @childsweethearts My son died from Ritalin. He asked me why I ever gave him this. He was 22. He asked why God cursed him with this. I told him this was'nt from God, this was from man and the enemy of God. We have free will and someone agreed to let this highly addictive amphetamine (schedule 2) be used on our kids because they were'nt perfect. I highly recomend you take your child off it and use a non-stimulant drug.

  • My son Sean Good died at age 22 from Ritalin. This may be rare, but read what the study by the NIDA found. The Ritalin effects the brain much like cocaine and may be worse. Brain imaging is slowing damage is done to the frontal lobe. Sean was prescribed Ritalin at age 12 and seemed to be doing well until his second year in college. Sean was a young adult unable to stay in school or keep a job because he felt he couldn't do anything without Ritalin. All I can do is warn you to honor Sean. See FDA

  • only 300,000 die from ritalin? One of those could have been my daughter.

  • real studies that don't involve a tiny amount of people have shown that the instance of sudden cardiac death is NO DIFFERENT between people on adhd meds and the general population.

  • Dr Ashton looks great and Julie with her white slacks. Two classy women in one shoot-great!
