I work as a school nurse and the number of children on psychotropic drugs is criminal...but there a minority of kids that do need meds but most do not...most of these meds are not approved to be used on children...one has to look into the background of these kids...no parents around, raised by daycare, divorce..parents living with boyfriends, girlfriends,sending kids to school ill because neither parent can take time from work to stay home with them...my favorite was the kindergartner that came off the bus to my office with a fever...mom knew she was ill but she had an "important" tennis tournament to play in that day...love making the phone call to that mom....hee-hee....now their are single parents that do a great job and that is because they make their children a priority and not their social lives....next time you drive by a daycare look at all the kids hanging on that chain link fence....it reminds me of prisoners looking towards freedom

Oh, your last line just breaks my heart and it is true...so true. Can't imagine sending my child to school ill because I had a "social" commitment.
