Ban psychiatric drugs for children

whiteonion · 2011-03-05 14:32:19

Children under 18 should not be put on psychiatric drugs, the drugs are often dangerous with severe side effects. Why should it be legal to give these drugs to children when children are not allowed to consume alcohol or tobacco? You would not put a kid on cocaine so why would you put a kid on other mind altering drugs…

You would not put a kid on cocaine so why would you put a kid on other mind altering drugs made by some pharmaceutical company?

Wrong forum. This is psychology: if you want to make assertions, back them up with some science, not just opinions please. Mod hat on JC
