[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 555711, member: 1157"] Reading this articles (and the comments) brought forth a slew of emotions, not the least of which is sadness and frustration over the never-ending battle against the stigma of mental illness and society's eagerness to blame the parents. So many of us here have had to take our kids to the ER when they're out control and a clear danger to themselves or us. We most always take them there at the urging of a doctor. Are there really that many cases of parents taking "normal" kids to the ER just because they won't behave?! This article would have us believe that.... am I missing something?!
