<< Is it good therapy to put a kid on behavioural modification drugs

contact with its own inner child ..?

90 million tons of speed .. in the form of Ritalin consumed
by children under the age of 13 isn't about "Hearing the Children"

especially when these therapists are placing babies as young
as 3 months of age on the stuff .. against the manufactures's
guidelines. >>

My problem here is not what "these therapists" or a particular therapist did,
it's the totalizing analysis of therapy under the reference frame of the most
dour anecdotes. This is not good scholarship, in my quite often humble
opinion. Worst case scenario stuff used to discredit everything in any given
category. It's as bad as using best case scenario stuff to attempt to
legitimize any given category. Neither approach really works for me. But
then, what do I know? I'm only a small trace of perfume in the cosmic
nostrils.

What amazes me most, is that the manufacturer has any guidelines at all.
Probably after 4 years of Bush, they won't have to bother with such
formalities.
