[QUOTE="firehorsewoman, post: 552847"] I have been through what most of you have been through regarding medications and have felt exactly like the statement above. I hate that we are all in the position of having to make the excruciatingly hard choice to medicate or not...only extreme circumstances would ever cause most of us to consider these drugs for our children. We are all so desperate to help them. Although medications do help many, many, kids and turn some lives around, most our medicated kids continue to struggle (not that we are expecting miracles) and also experience side-effects from the medications. I think this last fact contributes to making the decision to medicate or not so difficult. We know that there is no perfect drug and there are risks with all of them. [/QUOTE]
