Its nice to see bribrey is still alive and kicking in our government. Oops, did i say bribery? I meant lobbying.. yea that's it....
This whole idea is flawed on so many levels. What % of students wouldnt "benefit" from some form of medication? That kid is shy? Lets pump him full of drugs. That kid talks in class? Pump him full of drugs! Those two kids don'tlike eacher? Hell, they need some drugs! "oh! oh! oh! Teacher! I know the answer!" ... "Now, now, Billy... you didnt raise your hand... time for you to go down to the nurse's office to get pumped full of mind altering drugs!"
Any kind of drug that is used on a child to effect their "mental health" is bad in my opinion. ADD.. depression.. hyperactivity.. these are things that ALL children experience to some degree. I have an idea, instead of talking to the child and asking what could be wrong, and trying to deal with it that way, lets pump "tested" drugs into their body that have a chance to kill them. If they're dead they'll nolonger have any problems witht heir mental health - problem solved!
