[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And when you are the parent of a child whose life has been completely changed by the better due to psychiatric medication, conspiracy theories about drugs being force-fed to normal children by anxious parents and greedy insurance companies are offensive. Those greedy insurance companies! Forcing parents of diabetic children into buying insulin. Those greedy insurance companies! Forcing parents of children with cancer to buy chemotherapy! [/quote] A bit prone to melodrama? No one is saying--except you, apparently--that children with cancer should not be given chemotherapy. It's relatively easy to detect cancer cells and tumors and to distinguish them from normal cells. However, diagnosing ADHD is clearly an imperfect science with statistically significant biases.
