See there B-Mom if he was doped up on Ritalin, he wouldn't have run off.
Unfortunately many parents, unlike yourself still trust the 'authorities' of the Medical establishment and the Education establishment not understanding these institutions have been compromised by the 'enemy within'. (SEE POST #70) Many just don't seem to care.
Luckily there was no such thing as Ritalin in my time but I was still overcome by drugs, sex, Rock N'err R&B/Disco/Jazz etc. Now, still in the process of overcoming those earlier destructive influences eventho it's been over 25 years ago.
Oh I know what you mean--it's amazing what the brainwashing can do to you. I was thinking not too long ago, how young women have been brainwashed to think nothing of having abortion. It's a Right. I don't know what the 60's were like (I was born at the end of it), but the indoctrination is super intense today. This whole culture needs a mass intervention/deprogramming.
