Did Jim pose as a school nurse to call CPS?

If that's true, that's nuts and she is lacking a basic common sense gene.

I find it hard to believe that the kid does not have an ADHD dx and a prescription. I do know that it has become hard to get ADHD med refills, so maybe the pill bottle didn’t have his name on it.

The article says the child has not been prescribed the meds. This isn’t a case where they ran out of meds. This is People, not Reality Blurb.

The People article, lol. Nobody knows what the actual facts are here. For me, that the kid has a history of serious behavioral issues strongly suggests he has a diagnosis and a prescription, albeit maybe not that bottle. It’s not like she was trying to hide it. In the spectrum of poor SN parenting, this seems like a bad choice on her part but very far from meriting any sort of permanent loss of custody unless there is more going on.

It could also be the father disagreed with medicating and so did not consent. Who knows. Agree the situation could be more complicated, but no one with half a brain would ask a school nurse to administer medication that is not prescribed.

If Jim didn’t agree were back to the same point of Meghan giving her kids an illegal drug.

You sound like an idiot. The medication, if it was ritalin, is not an illegal drug. How can you not know that?

I am sure there is more going on. CPS doesn't remove the kids and order only supervised access over giving the child the right prescribed medication but from a different bottle. Additionally the guardian ad litem for the kids filed for and was granted a temporary restraining order against her.

Exactly. The PP defending her is making a really weird choice here.

No, I am pointing out the insinuation that she is “drugging” her kid such that they will be permanently removed from her custody is a huge stretch. There is a lot of documentation that the child has behavioral and cognitive issues, of the type that a stimulant prescription would be totally normal. I don’t know what exactly she did with this particular bottle of meds but we also know that there is a very low barrier to call CPS and also that her ex is an *sshole. Maybe she has something else going on that makes her an unfit parent, and yes, giving her child someone else’s prescription was dumb. But there is no indication the child was harmed in any way. It sounds like she needs more supports in parenting 3 young kids, one of whom has significant SN.

First of all, giving your kid illegal drugs is a huge deal - why the quotes around drugging? No one said she is permanently losing custody. It’s been said multiple times that it’s temporary. And why are you constantly bringing up Jim? Jim is not the one that called CPS?

Thousands of parents give their kids Ritalin …

And?

And so saying she “drugged” her child or gave him “illegal drugs” is a distortion. He is a kid who almost certainly would be prescribed Ritalin by many/most child psychiatrists.

You have no idea if the kid would “most certainly be prescribed Ritalin”. If he would have “most certainly” been prescribed Ritalin, he would have.

I know it as much as you know anything. Kids with serious behavioral issues like her child is reported to have get regularly prescribed a stimulant. It is very, very common.

Then he would have been prescribed them.

It’s been hard lately to access refills of stimulants. I’m not saying I know he had a prescription or that she wasn’t being stupid … just that she wasn’t “drugging” the child as if giving him heroin.

The only apparent fact you can take away from this is that the order is *temporary* and there is a hearing scheduled in December.

You have no idea what you’re talking about either. But you are weirdly defensive of a woman whose actions rose to a level where CPS took away her custody weeks ago.

Not sure what your issue is with the ex, but Meghan’s actions triggered the school to make the CPS complaint, not her ex. And having a restraining order filed against you from the GAL is serious and not something you should make light of.

Reunification is always the goal of family services so of course the order is temporary.

This is an Entertainment message board. So we’re going to talk about things reported from reputable sources. If the discussion triggers something in you - maybe your prior behavior? - then disengage.

You are behaving as an expert on this case after reading an article from People magazine and other entertainment rags, which is hilarious.
