Of course. The only surprise is that it’s being brought up in mainstream media. Disenfranchised drug-addled young men can’t distinguish their violent, values-starved fantasy world from the real world where they were ignored or marginalized. The start of a solution would be to provide them real world experiences they felt positive about. I agree with those who advocate for hands-on vocational education a part of the solution.
No, what I was saying is that many of the anti-depressents and psychotropic drugs say not for someone under 30, or under 25 or under 18 and they get prescribed anyway or when the person is just over the calendar age and Bam, big problems.
I am not against psychiatric medication, but too much it's prescribed sloppily and unscientifically. And it should never be prescribed without therapy.
For example, Serotonin reuptake inhibitors will not help people who have normal amounts of serotonin. Quite the opposite. But that's not how they've been prescribed.
More gun laws will take care of this.
Bad parenting and no God in home or school - that’s it in a nutshell.
This is the reason there is so much “mental illness”, leading to the use of so many drugs.
If you think of every problem our society has, following the teachings of Scriptures will rectify it, or at the very least give us instruction on dealing with it.
YOU are right. The lack of love (God), and attention at home has much to do with why children/teens do what they do.
As a former CJ Instructor, let me say this, there was a study done in Juvenile Detention Centers, with surveys on why those young people ended up there. One thing stood out, most felt no one would care if they were gone, and incarcerated. There was NOT one relationship...parent, grandparent, older sibling, or even community, that they felt close enough to, that would cause them to think about NOT doing the crime. Sad.
AS families we can miss the ability to connect with children or teens, because we do not realize how important their need for love really is, and making the effort to get close to them is usually abandoned; if they are too much trouble or their attitude offends us. Usually, there is a reason for their anger, attitude, or actions. Finding out what that is will not only help them stay out of system, but teach us that inside... there is a pain they would love to share, but can’t, unless there is close relationship that is safe!
Track the scripts and cross reference young males mentally deranged, making sure they have access to rifles and pistols ... a data base to tap when the oligarchy needs a diversion (criminal Mule-er and treasonous Hillary, anyone?) or cause for enslaving We The People (take weapons from law abiding citizens, so only government goon-squads and criminals have them).
Most of the drugs have “warnings that are supposed to be ignored” about how they “may cause feeling of depression/thoughts of suicide/going off the deep end in some tragic way” and we so much of the violence being done by those with the drugs in their system and yet they continue to be distributed like Pez used to be...
“We know nothing about his somewhat shady lineage,”
He was a Russian orphan. FAS is reported to be common among them, and Romanian orphans as well.
Is that definite, Pelham?
Bryan Suits was the source. He’s usually pretty reliable about sourcing his information.
But then I can’t find any confirmation of Suit’s claim regarding Cruz so it’s surely not ‘definite’. I don’t know where he got his information.
Thanks nickcarraway.
It’s a racket as well, as schools that can get their kids on psychotropic drugs can also obtain “special needs” benefits from the state and federal gov’ts.
