Drugs took over the streets along time ago, I would be more worried about all the crap the people drink and the overall damage it\\\'s done to society as a whole. Drugs are the least of our problems. My wife is scared to drive here cause of all the bloody drunks.

I only have the info the Dr told me. The school hands out check sheets for you to take to a Dr. to make it easier to drug our kids. The school was pushing me to put my child on Ritalin but I felt he did not fit criteria but I also did not feel to have Cas bull so I took him to a pyschiatrist for an expert opinion (I knew he would pass) anyway Dr. told me does not fit criteria and because he is small from being premature the drug would cause him serious harm especially in bone growth development bc he was a preemie most have a delayed growth spurt. The good Dr was kind enough to send letter to school stating in his expert opinion child did not warrent any treatment of any kind. The Dr did tell me if I were to allow school to bully me and put child on meds I would have problem with him next. So not all shrinks are bad, most don't like to drug kids but yes there are some that do and yes there are some truly wacky shrinks out there but in reality there are some pretty wacky people in general. Lets hope they find each other and leave the reat of us alone. Sorry I could not give you more help. Alo this Dr. also a proffersor of pyschiatry so if another Dr says he never heard that, its posible these bits of wisdom come from experince, training and wisdom. Not all are experienced, not all our wise.

Try and get to know a shrink or pyschologist on a not a patient basis you'll find out lots. Maybe you'll come across 1 around the courthouse, go have coffee, pick their brain. Plus I'm sure they could direct you to interesting websites, readings yadda, yadda.
