[quote=Anonymous]It seems that whenever therapies are suggested or mentioned, certain posters or perhaps one poster always responds that there is no scientific proof or data that a therapy or item works. My feelings about this. An absence of controlled studies about a certain therapy does not mean that controlled studies, if performed, would prove that therapy does not work. I also wonder about people who always need data before attempting anything with their child. I understand the need to avoid quackery and the wish not to throw money away. However if I see something that many other parents are recommending I'm going to consider trying it, regardless of whether controlled blind studies have been performed. How much healthy skepticism do you bring?[/quote]
