[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the major points of that study was that toddlers on Medicaid are being prescribed significantly more ADHD meds than those not on Medicaid. This study was limited to Georgia, so it is unclear whether this practice is nationwide. [/quote] Is that because children on Medicaid don't get other treatment? Or because a family history of ADHD may lead to parents' unemployment and hence Medicaid?[/quote] Originally ADD was a rich family's diagnosis. Now it's equally opportunity. Chemical imbalance is still largely a rich family's diagnosis. But it'll trickle down to everyone. Watch. No one will need to go to jail anymore. Just mental health services and compassion.[/quote]
