[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a woman who plans to give her 10 year old ASD/ADHD son medical marijuana. I think she's crazy, but she wants him to "sleep." Which is strange since he's already heavily medicated. I worry for him that's for sure.[/quote]

Wow. You're a peach. Do you have a child with special needs, or just generally enjoy judging the parents of children with special needs? What a lucky "friend" you have. Ugh. [/quote]

I also have a child with ASD. So, you can have a seat. [/quote]

No, not really. You should stop judging another parent for making difficult decisions regarding medication. Perhaps her child has not slept in years. Why would it be a bad idea to explore medical options? Good lord. [/quote]

DP.  We're all allowed to worry for other children.  Nothing on this thread seems to imply that medical marijuana for sleep is the right step, or, if the wrong step, harmless. [/quote]

What are you talking about? It’s commonly prescribed for insomnia. [/quote]

What doctor is going to prescribe it for a 10 year old who is already heavily medicated, with no current sleep issues?[/quote]
