[QUOTE="jamrobmic, post: 6934, member: 1412"] "Ms. Kehoe, who receives government financial and child-care assistance because her children are considered mentally ill..." I wonder how many people reading this article will zero in on that and will assume that's why she has her kids on medication. "Still, most of the parents interviewed for this article said their childrens behavior deteriorated rapidly without medication." But most of the article seems to be slanted toward the idea that medicating kids is at best not proven to be helpful, and at worst is harming them. [/QUOTE]
