Default Re: Another Reading

Actually I've had quite a bit of experience in dealing with ADHD, public schools (well Albuquerque Public Schools), and to a lesser degree Ritalin. If you have a child that truely does have ADHD, you would probably be better off home schooling that child in subjects that they were having problems in than prescribing Ritalin and going through the special education process mandated by law (not Ritalin). Just my opinion through experience. I actually did this BTW. I have problems administering such a drug to a child and my experiences have shown me that at least part of the problem rests with the public school system itself.
