[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 417713, member: 1514"] Im a big believer in better living through pharmacology. If something can help the brain chemistry work better and give kids a leg up so they dont have to fight as hard, I dont see what the problem is. 2 of my boys were on medication for most of their lives and it hasnt hurt them any. As far as stunting growth or interfering with the intelligence of my son who took ADHD stims, well, he is 6'5.5" tall so I would hate to think how tall he would have been! He graduated HS, went into the military, has worked for the last 4 years for the sheriff's dept as an animal control officer and is now in the police academy. He is married, has two kids and his buying his own home. I think he is pretty successful. [/QUOTE]
