[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 29939, member: 3419"] I agree with-Hanging on and Midwest Mom... there were too many warning signs. Keeping the child quiet is not a good reason for medications. And they were clearly not able to handle their own lives and jobs (or lack thereof) much less handle a difficult/sick child. The dr is also at fault, as we have all pointed out... we have all had to jump through hoops to get our medications, we've all had the dog eat them... but how many? If as you suggested, We/I go through my own records, there is no way the loss of pills in a lifetime could conceivably total those taken by that child in such a short period of time. Yes, we should be compassionate. Yes, we should give advice on medications, and we do. But as the cliche' goes, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. What IF that couple were on this bb? And what IF they still did what they did? This is still a tragedy. My first reaction is anger. Compassion? Yes... but more for the child than the parents and doctor. Yes, the media does mess up things, and quite often, deliberately, but even with-the sparse info we've been given in this case, it is clear that the parents and doctor did something wrong. [/QUOTE]
