Dumb move. My kid’s first grade teacher wanted him on it. I said hell no. Now, he is still different, very intelligent, struggling, but doesn’t need to be on that. Any time someone talks to me about Adderall, I tell them that Adderall will wreck whoever’s life it is prescribed to. I have seen it happen too often.
what do you have against baseball hot dogs and ice cream?
“I’ve read that in some schools 25% of students are on medication of some type. Shocking if true...”
Sounds right.
According to the Nat Institute of Mental Health the prevalence of mental disorders in Americans is 1 in 4.

spanking is a violent response, no?
I hate losing Wayne LaPierre (if he indeed is going) because he is a BULLDOG.... but Oliver North is solid, too.
Plus. the military will not take anyone who has been on these mind altering drugs.....iirc.
America has always been violent. The difference is, if anyone had shot up a school in the old days, he would’ve been hanging from a tree before bedtime.
It doesn’t take that much to determine guilt. But we think we’re wise to let teams of lawyers argue about it for years and years and years. Meanwhile notoreity, fame and fanbases grow for these twisted animals who stick around to face the music. They often even get proposals from starstruck girls, when before, they couldn’t even get a date.
We need vastly expedited justice in these cases so that others, who might be contemplating something similar, find it impossible to see an upside.
Simple FACT:
Since the introduction of gun free school zones, school shootings have increased THREE FOLD.
To me, that’s just sick and disturbing that some mass murderers has fangirls.
Ritalin = Kiddie Cocaine
Giving kids these drugs is nothing more than the chemical castration of boys.
Also, what do they expect is going to happen when they boot God and religion from the schools?
If a kid brings a Bible to school, the moonbat “teachers” and administrators treat it as though it’s a package of plutonium.
Did Ollie North ever support the assault weapons ban back in the 90’s or is that fake news?
Yes, he does. About time!!
My daughter was prescribed Ritalin after one week she came after me with a knife. That drug is very dangerous.
I think I read his mother works in the healthcare industry???
“It’s that Christianity/Judaism have been thrown out. They carry with them principles of life, or a moral code. They were replaced with essentially nothing, or nihilistic liberalism.
When the very obvious truths of existence are thrown away, the kids have nothing to replace them with.”
BINGO!
Not replacing, joining the club.
I thought violent crime is way down? Seems like we would see more if video games were to blame. I think it is alienation caused by social media and the 24 hour entertainment culture.
Freegards
Yes he is. This has become a cultural phenomenon IMHO with multiple factors, and or including as he mentioned Ritalin, SSRI drugs, lack of father figures, lack of consistent parenting ( foster kids moving around ), the effects of "e communications and media" aka snapchat, instagram, FB etc that are having possibly corrosive effects on feelings of community and connective-ness, diet, exercise, and Faith. Tangent is do we need to revisit institutionalization, no one will go near that subject matter.
