Yeah, but “immature” just doesn’t bring in the big bucks.

More often than not it is corn syrup rather than sugar.

Uh oh. This will cause panic in the liberal crowd. Unmedicated children?? They might have to actually be PARENTS and work at raising civilized, educated, disciplined children...

Sorry, the science is already settled. These new deniers are interfering with the profits and must be crushed.< /s>

All that energy meant to to keep the children active and grow their muscles and stamina, etc., stolen away by a pill in order to give adults quiet kids?
If you can't handle your kids, don't make them. People walk their dogs every day--at least the responsible ones do...

Uh no. Kids are locked in prison cells all day learning how they are destroying the planet from homos.

And that medicine physically alters their brains for the rest of their lives. It is pure evil.
Kids need discipline and some butt whooping, NOT drugs.

How about bringing back recess and letting boys be boys, instead of forcing them to be girls?
