I shied away from commenting on this post, because my views on the medication of children are controversial - I believe our children are born healthy for the most part, and that by taking them to pediatricians for every little thing, where they are nearly always prescribed a toxin of some sort, we erode their creator-given healthy state. Most conversations about our children's healths ignore one very important, and highly ubiquitous fact; our children are regularly poisoned by vaccines. Why on earth are we not seeing the connections there?
For example, here is a headline from the NYTimes just today for an article that tries to blame anything but:
We have all been led, via electronics, into a world of fantasy, with blind spots galore to what is actually happening to us.
Expectations of childhood have definitely changed though. We now expect children to be raised by machines, with no interaction with parents who want their best.
