Amen..thanks for that..only people with ADD/ADHD children should reply to this post...

What UTTER nonsense...

So only people who are in Iraq can comment on Iraq?

Only people who smoke pot can comment on pot?

Only people who murder someone can comment on it?

Get real!

First off, there are very few kids who are actually ADD/ADHD. It's been proven to be overdiagnosed. Many were kids who were given the popular "time outs" if not totally ignored by their parents when they got out of line.

Just because your kid has been labelled ADD/ADHD doesn't mean they actually are.

And yes, the wisdom of those who have not doped their kids has valid weight in this discussion.

It's easy to discount use of drugs if you haven't had the experience of living with an add/adhd child. Just like I'm not going to tell a veteran to "Get over it" when dealing with post traumatic stress.

Mu point was it's easy for parents that haven't experienced this to judge medication very quickly....

He was looking for help not a debate....

people who haven't had to live with it want to debate it..people who have want to give solutions

Thats not nonsense
