[QUOTE="frustration, post: 408208, member: 11212"] Can anyone tell me where Oprah got her stats from of 15 million kids suffering from early onset mental illness? I do not believe there are 15 million who have the same thing as that boy on there did...I think by her saying that stat during the show highlighting his extreme case will just make it easy for parents with high energy kids who have tantrums and act out to slap a label on them. I think the stats of kids who have the serious condition that boy has would be low and I wish she would have clarified that. the reason the stats are so high i think is because of all the bandwagon jumpers who get a label on their kid for any behaviour that is not falling in line with the status quo.
