[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 575948, member: 1169"] psychiatric medications saved my family. I acknowledge that they are not beneficial for all and that they can cause harm. We have had to deal with some brutal side effects and I would love it if my kids did not need them. Without the medications, my boys would have missed their childhoods completely. medications are the only thing that quiets the voices in Kanga's head. And without Ritalin, Piglet tests as mentally retarded because her ADD is so severe, with the Ritalin she is low-average to average and in all regular ed without modifications. There are side effects to antibiotics, heart medications, cancer medications, etc. Yet, we still prefer to take the medications and play the odds that they will help more than hurt. [/QUOTE]
