CPS -- Ritalin

http://www.breggin.com/classactionmore.html

Parents throughout the country are being pressured and coerced by schools to give psychiatric drugs to their children. Teachers, school psychologists, and administrators commonly make dire threats about their inability to teach children without medicating them. They sometimes suggest that only medication can stave off a bleak future of delinquency and occupational failure. They even call child protective services to investigate parents for child neglect and they sometimes testify against parents in court. Often the schools recommend particular physicians who favor the use of stimulant drugs to control behavior. These stimulant drugs include methylphenidate (Ritalin, Concerta, and Metadate) or forms of amphetamine (Dexedrine and Adderall).

That's an old article. There was a law passed that anyone who works in a school who does not have a MD DO or PHD cannot even suggest ADD or ADHD to a parent. For a teacher to even suggest ADD or ADHD is illegal.

I'll see if I can find the sites that state that law.

Is this just a state law, or is it Federal?
just let me laugh when it's funny
but when it's sad, let me cry
