[QUOTE="Running_for_the_shelter, post: 438284, member: 2960"] It's all a matter of degree. Yes, my medicated son will hit, yell, and be horrible. But unmedicated, he could rage for what felt like forever. I am not sure I would have a house standing if he wasn't medicated. It would be marvelous if taking a drug were like flipping a switch that made a "normal" child out of a difficult child. But even when that happens, there can come a time when the drug doesn't work anymore. Bodies change, brain chemistry changes. But I'll take my relative peace over the chaos that used to surround us any day of the week. Remember the quote about not letting the perfect be the enemy of the good? [/QUOTE]
