I agree with you Happiest. I wanted to know what everyone thinks about kids withADHD, is that counted as a mental issue? Or is it more behavioral? Anyway,what do you think about medicating children? Do it and hopefully the child gets a second chance at success,or don’t do it because of fears that the medicine is “dangerous” and also because of the stigma that a person in the family is on medicine and risk this child falling trough the cracks and not finding success in life,but at least we can tell the shadchanim that we are a perfect family?!
