[quote=Anonymous]Kids have always been anxious. It's just pathologized/recognized/treated more now. My grandfather, grandmother, and father all had severe anxiety as children. They were also all put on opiates. So it's not some new thing caused by (ugh, seriously?) vaccines. In the past, parents tended to be much more hands-off (lots of unsupervised play time) and didn't necessarily notice the signs or get help. There's also a huge culture of medicating kids now that didn't exist in the past, and you can bet pharmaceutical companies benefit from increased "awareness" of psychiatric issues that lead to more prescriptions for their products.[/quote]
