9. If all these kids were marijuana users, they'd be screaming about it.

The silence about these psychotropic drugs is deafening.

I remember hearing a story about a boy of maybe 8 years of age, who was on mood altering drugs. He suffered from thoughts of wanting to cut his mom into pieces. After they weaned him off the drugs, he was completely free of those thoughts and became a normal 8-year-old. I don't remember the whole story, but I remember thinking he was lucky. He could have ended up with more "treatment" not less and who knows where he would be today.
