The Best Halloween Ever! Thanks to Feingold.org

Thanks to Feingold.org, we had the best Halloween ever. Our 7 year old didn't have any problems this Halloween because he did not have one piece of candy that had artificial colors, like Red 40, or artificial flavors like Vanillan.

I am so grateful to the Feingold Program! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

This is what happens when you don't have a job, own a minivan, and revolve your life around children. Typical soccer mom/family. ADD is not a disease, it is a disorder. Disorders are caused by bad parenting. It is all physiological and is a "disease" for the weak.

[headmutha]

@kostinsky- Hi! If you're 25, like your profile states, I'm going assume you have no children. At least I hope you don't. If you actually paid attention to anything I have said or written, I have never stated that my son has ADD. I have said that he has a reaction to the chemicals that are in foods. Like those who have Autism, who have reactions to gluten and milk, and when those are taken out of their diet, their brains can be lifted from the fog. It's a chemical reaction with the brain.

So before calling me a bad parent, become one yourself, see the difficulties that we have before laying judgment. I'm a mother of six children, don't judge me, don't lecture me, don't even comment about this until you have your own kids.

Thank you and good luck in your very young life. And by the way, I have a job, minivans suck hard, I'm not a soccer Mom, and I have a full life outside my kids. You are judging the wrong Mom here man.

wait is there like a medical reason he cant have those things (ie allergies)- or are you just not letting him have artifical coloring because its generally unhealthy.

[headmutha]

It's a medical reason. His body reacts to it. It was this or putting him on "ADD" medication.

how bad is his red 40 hyperactivity O_o

[headmutha]

@thechristian32 He is a different kid. He was angry and aggressive all the time. That's not the case anymore!

@headmutha OMG YOU GOT OWNED KOSTINSKY HAHA great response and keep lookin out for ya kids cuz they will be very halthy and very succesfull

[miltonwilton]

I commend you for being such a devoted mother. Only someone who really cares about their kids would do this for them. And to kostinsky, screw you. If your immature enough to call her a bad mother, then your obviously to immature to know enough about the disease and to know what you are talking about. Don't get so big in your britches there, bud.

@kostinsky

you stupid.. use your brain!!!

[bulldogm41]

good idea but wheres the fun in that, there is some candy that you just cant replace

[alannapower]

I have been diagnosed with ADHD (according to DSM there is no ADD anymore), I think if you really have it, it has nothing to do with anything you eat at all. It matters where I am at, who I am with, and what kind of things in my surroundings trigger it more than usual.
