People think/feel/say "something is wrong with me" or people tell them something is wrong with them and rather than taking the time to dig deep and find out what the issue is (or lack of an issue) some pharmaceutical company comes by and says, "Take this pill and you'll be just like everyone else in one week".Eschuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04265323447063629878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233053040404435373.post-2493181766254709412012-01-21T00:52:00.381-07:002012-01-21T00:52:00.381-07:00oh my, these are my thoughts exactly!! this is pre...oh my, these are my thoughts exactly!! this is precisely the way of thinking i have been discussing at length with my husband as we start to discuss the practicalities and our visions of having children in the future. the current schooling system failed both my husband (who is legitimately ADHD, but refuses to be medicated - i'm proud of that) and myself (who was well ahead of the curve and began to 'fail' out of sheer boredom and lack of stimulation)and the problems just seem to be getting so much worse. hypermedicating kids and shoving pills down the throats of those with "disorders" can only be doing more harm than good - what new batch of problems is this going to create within the next generation, and the next!!<br /><br />good on you for ranting about it, more people should be!Meganhttp://throughthecellardoor.comnoreply@blogger.com
