It’s fascinating that otherwise intelligent people have no hesitation pumping their children’s developing brains full of SSRIs and amphetamines at the behest of a professional class who is paid to distribute these medications.

It's even more fascinating when you have first hand experience with how much unmitigated guesswork goes into selecting psychiatric meds and their dosage.

I used to share your opinion, and in a way I still do, but after having 3 children and seeing how horrible some of these behaviors and habits can get, I completely understand why people cave in to get some relief. The stress of dealing with severe behavioral issues day after day can easily destroy a marriage and family.
