I have ADD and ADHD and can speak from experience. Ritalin is really a bad drug for kids with ADD and/or ADHD because it really does nothing for them. In the cases I have seen, ritalin has only caused major problems for the child. He/she has problems with sitting still, the effects of the ADD/ADHD have been increased, their are mental and physical effects resulting in heart problems and sanity problems. Ritalin is really not worth it. If your child has ADD/ADHD, I would suggest staying away from sugar as this becomes a cause for problem behavior. I hope my information has helped.
