[quote=Anonymous]There are many conclusions one could come to about why people on Medicaid are more likely to have their toddlers prescribed these drugs. One thing to remember is that more affluent people have the time and means to get other help - a Ritalin prescription is relatively inexpensive. The kind of help those of you without ADHD kids are envisioning - and remember that ADHD is often comorbid with other difficult to treat conditions like dyspraxia and and high functioning autism - is time-consuming and expensive, rarely paid for by insurance. So quick to judge parents when what's really missing is a good support system. [/quote]
