“It’s less like an oil change and more like brain surgery.”
throwing ignorant comments into a serious discussion is misleading. When kids suffer from imbalances, disorders, diseases or conditions that make that individual UNABLE TO FUNCTION then it is serious neglect to deprive the child of whatever help he or she needs. The fact that you don’t like it does not make it okay to misrepresent it in such a way. People who swear off drugs for all these theoretical and feel good reasons are no different than anti vaxers who worry more about their political or personal status than what is in the best interest of their child.
