[quote=Anonymous]Kids are complex. My 11 year old just had her tonsils out. Everyone told me it'll be hell. That she's going to be in so much pain. It's going to be horrible. Well, it wasn't. Sure she had some pain here and there but she's such a tough kid after being used to being in pain (between ear tubes, strep and tonsil stones). I have no doubt that is Maya. My DD also has anxiety, and doesn't like to show she's in pain, especially to strangers (even doctors).

A friend from high school noticed one day that her baby daughter (10 months old) had some spots on her ear lobes. She took her to the doctor to make sure it wasn't anything crazy, and that's when the doctors accused them of abusing her. Know what it was? 2 days before her mother in law was putting a party headband on the girls head and it landed awkwardly on her ears, making the bruises (poor kid has a big head like her dad). Thankfully the hospital released their daughter into grandma's care, but it was weeks of interviews, lie detector tests, police involvement, only supervised visitation and scans on the baby. I think it took around 3 months to finally close that case.

The woman at the end of the documentary was 100% correct. You are guilty until you prove your innocence. How exactly are you supposed to prove you didn't do something? It's like Amazon asking for proof that your package didn't arrive.

As far as the meds, we don't do much med testing on children in general. Women were just included in medical trials in the early 1990's. More studies and testing needs to happen. I know children out there are being abused, but there has to be some way to stop this medical abuse and trauma on families simply trying to help their children.[/quote]
