[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 146087, member: 1233"] I am not sure quite what to think. I know my difficult child was very very violent while taking zoloft. But the violence did NOT occur until three months after the medication started. I think Zoloft can contribute, but the boy is still responsible. I think 40 years is a long time. BUT the boy did the crime. Yes, his life was not good. That is no excuse. I don't know if 40 years is too long. If he were an adult many people would be calling for the death penalty. The truth is that no one knows how to fix the mentally ill. Or how to deal with the increasingly violent crimes that young people are committing. I don't think ANY system will help young people who are so mentally ill. Maybe the best that can happen is to keep violent people away from the rest of society. But I think someway, somehow, we should find a better solution. If nothing else there should be some safety net that protects children from abuse. I also think the mother of this boy should serve the same amount of time he did. Susie [/QUOTE]
