It's amazing that people are so in denial about this drug-addled society we live in. What did people do before they had all these drugs? For one thing they weren't shooting up school children.
No one can tell me that we have so many children in this country who need these heavy duty drugs. How come children in other countries manage to survive childhood without being drugged into a zombie state?
I have never signed a paper given to me by any doctor that any of my students needed medication simply because they were full of energy. As someone upthread said, if they have that much energy, it can be directed into something that will use it in a positive way. But the answer to everything in this country now is drugs, and guns, and war and then drugs to handle the violence etc. etc.
We live in a totally screwed up society and unless something is done about it, we will continue to have these mass killings. Drugs and guns, imagine if children had no access to either, they could just be kids as they were for centuries. But then a whole lot of people would not be making the money they are making.
