[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 533487"] I started medicating my kids when I saw they were hurting or because of a safety issue. For example difficult child 1 trying to hurt his siblings or difficult child 2 being scared to the point he physically hurts. I also agree with medications for kids who can't learn without them. I have a nephew whose social skills level is years below his age because he is so hyper he can't learn without medications. They have just put him on medications and it is working wonders. There are also some academic skills I consider essential, like learning to read, if he can learn without the medications great. If he needs the medications its great they are out there. medications are not a fix it pill. My nephew that the medications work great on still has problems. The medications are just one piece of his treatment. They don't change who he is. [/QUOTE]
