Another Victim

 I met another victim of "ADHD" labeling today. A handsome little boy, who's mother is a drug addict that lives in a motel with a boyfriend. His mother makes many promises but keeps none of them. The boy and his siblings are being raised by a short tempered grandmother. He sits there silent, slightly rocking, as if struggling to stay awake because of his "medication".
 This is the society we live in today. Children with abusive,permissive or absent parents, in pain,rebellion or fear,are being labeled with a "disease", as if their problems are coming from within their bodies rather than from the adults causing them.
 They are being trained to be life long drug addicts, believing that every pain, anger and trauma can be fixed with the right drug. When they grow out of their prescription drugs they will seek the comfort of illegal drugs to numb their pain.
 It is both infuriating and heart breaking to see thousands upon thousands of boys being labeled, medicated, excused and ignored.
