Default Re: Medicating Children to control their behavior.

Very good point. Coping skills are extremely important in life.

You know the ironic thing is that in the cases where the parents just don't want to deal with the behavior so they medicate them are very likely causing the problem by not spending time with them, giving them enough attention, etc.
