i want to ask a question to see what you guys think..
Why is it that schools have such a problem with kids misbehaving?

Here are a few of the main reasons in my opinion
1. In todays society no-one takes blame for their own actions. i.e spilled coffee ='s mcdonalds getting sued.

2. Many of todays kids are given some form of ADD or depression medication.
between 1995 and 1999 the use of Ritalin and Adderall increased by 26% among childreen and teens. is this because more kids became less attentive? or because more doctors pushed a drug on a family to line their pockets? Now how many of you knew this, that in a study by Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York, it was in found that even in pill form that Ritalin blocked far mor of the brain transporters that affect mood and had a GREATER POTENCY IN THE BRAIN THAN COCAINE. it was actually found to block 20% more transporters than cocaine. Many children that are "diagnosed" with ADD could also be helped through an eating plan http://www.mercola.com/nutritionplan/index.htm.

Also in this same time span the use ofzoloft and prozac type drugs increased in teens and children by 62%... Well the number one side effect of zoloft and prozac are suicidal tendencies.
The reason i am ranting about these things to you guys is this... This past week a man that was a friend of mine his father died... The dad had broken up with his girlfriend and was trying to get over it... so he went to his doctor and was put on an Anti-depressant. about a week later he started feeling like he wanted to kill himself so he went back to the doctor and he was told that he should just take more of that medicine... so he went and got a second opinion. well the new doctor took him off the medicine and prescribed him something different but told him not to start taking the medicine until he had too. about2 weeks went by and he was doing great but he was having a bad day one day and decided to take the medicine... the next day he went to visit his grandkids at my friends house. While he was there he went into the basement and killed himself. i cannot imagine what could compel a man with a loving family to do such a thing. It really breaks my heart.. so please before you guys look in your medicine cabinet this evening make sure you go online and read the side effects, and don't let them play any of them down. also try to look at what we are teaching our children by taking 10 pills every day. there are better ways to heal our body. We were created with the power within to heal, but we must remove the interference so that our body can do so....


Now just to let you guys know i have nothing against medicine, if were hit by a bus on the way home please someone give me some morphine or something... it just sickens me to see our society overdrugged when all that the medicine is doing is masking a symptom...
