Oh, an her dad works for Cargill, IT staff. And stop throwing out bad science regarding theRead More agricultural industry. Professionals again do NOT arbitrarily throw out these diagnosies. It was not in the food she ate. We tried food elimination/avoidance before the medication. I ate healthy while pregnant and her sister certainly doesn't have ADHD. Instead she has mild dyslexia. I guess my asthma was not genetic either. All these things are genetic, not environmentally caused. Triggers can be environmental.

Can you use a mini trampoline in school? Subject your student to be called in class for acting up?Read More Schools expect the student to sit and listen. So do the best for your child and give him a helping hand if possible. I am not advocating medication unless possible...it just ticks me off that you have some people that think its just a lazy label handed out by doctors.

MINE doesn't sell her medication. One it's a felony and two she NEEDS to take her medication.Read More The bottle doesn't leave the house and is locked up. It is very difficult to get a controlled substance like the ADHD medication refilled before the current prescription is scheduled to run out of pills. Too many of the "lost" refill requests can result in an investigation. She lost her pills once (only a nine doses of pills left) and I had to sign a waiver stating that the prescription was truly lost.

Hi Mike -- It is possible to have liberal ideals and spend wisely. Sheri's son got a free tux on theRead More back of his hardworking friends? Sounds like communism to me! In all seriousness, I applaud Sheri for raising a sensible son, and I deplore Mike B.'s parents for raising him to blame a political party for all shortcomings in a society.

Scott, there is no such thing as "liberal ideals." Liberals are pro-abortion, pro-taxingRead More people to death, pro-homosexual marriage, pro-kicking God out of the classroom.... these are not "ideals." These are evil beliefs.
