[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to respect his decision. Work with him on other ways to manage his school work. [/quote] Wrong. Taking meds is a non-negotiable. Period, the end. If he’s concerned about growth be sure he knows it’s due to less eating and nothing else. He should bulk up on protein, fruits and veg and take a multivitamin [/quote] Lol good luck with that. He is a teenager not a baby - you cannot and should not force it - particularly since this is not a life & death situation (or even impacting his health, per se). I suppose a really abusive or authoritarian parent could force it, but to what end? You are going to wreck your relationship with your child, and also wreck your child's relationship to psychiatry/psychology. [/quote]
