This book exposes a major marketing scheme that is currently under way, and unfortunately our children are the primary targets! The new federally mandated TeenScreen program is nothing more than a deceptive marketing scheme to place as many children as possible (even preschoolers), on one or more highly profitable, although unbelievably dangerous drug. Unfortunately, it has been working! This mandatory mental screening process was deliberately designed to assure that many perfectly normal children would now qualify for one or more of these very profitable drugs. And it s making its way across America through public schools! It all began with the 374 different newly created mental conditions in order to justify placing our children, (including preschoolers), on one or more of the dangerous mind-altering drugs that, although legal, can still be lethal! Only one of the sixteen drugs being promoted for children s use was actually tested on, or approved by the FDA for children s use! With approximately 575 potential side effects associated with Prozac that were listed with the FDA, and over 20,000 law suits settled by the maker Eli Lilly, to date, the question is: Why is Eli Lilly still being allowed to promote Prozac for even pregnant mothers, and very young children? Their tremendous influence with the FDA has to be obvious, and unfortunately places millions of children at extreme risk as a result. That will soon become obvious, once you learn the damning evidence I uncovered, regarding the many serious risks associated with Prozac. The same also applies to the stimulant drugs, such as Ritalin, as well as an additional newer class of drugs known as atypical antipsychotics, which are also being aggressively promoted. It has become an extremely profitable business, and has absolutely nothing to do with mental health, but is instead actually threatening our mental health. You will discover that these drugs not only pose a serious threat to both you, and your children, but in some cases, the developing fetus as well! You will also learn how these drugs damage children s brains, lowering their IQs, and increasing their risk for acquiring cancer, as well as dementia and Alzheimer's disease at an early age as well. Possibly the very best news is, you basically don t need them, and there are much better drug-free solutions, proven more effective! And you will find that I always provide adequate scientific proof to substantiate my claims. Then as usual, I never identify a problem without, in turn, providing a solution. You will likely be quite amazed at how many different options are available for you to choose from, and how simple and inexpensive they can be. Absolutely no one needs these dangerous mind-altering drugs that contribute to major disease, and reduce your mental capacity! This book is a must-read book that will shock you with the truth! A book that could be life-saving for many children (and adults) in the nation..

Why and how did ADHD become the most commonly diagnosed mental disorder among children and adolescents, as well as one of the most controversial? Stimulant medication had been used to treat excessively hyperactive children since the 1950s. And the behaviors that today might lead to an ADHD diagnosis had been observed since the early 1930s as “organic drivenness,” and then by various other names throughout the decades.

Rick Mayes and his coauthors argue that a unique alignment of social and economic trends and incentives converged in the early 1990s with greater scientific knowledge to make ADHD the most prevalent pediatric mental disorder. New movements advocating for the rights of children and the disabled and a massive increase in Medicaid spending on psychotropic drugs all contributed to the dramatic spike in ADHD diagnoses and stimulant use.

Medicating Children is unique in that it integrates analyses of the clinical, political, historical, educational, social, economic, and legal aspects of ADHD and stimulant pharmacotherapy. Thus, it will be invaluable to educators, clinicians, parents, and policymakers, all of whom are trying to determine what is in the best interest of millions of children.
