re: #97 NJDhockeyfan

Three weeks into kindergarten her teacher said she has ADD and suggested she be put on Ritalin. Her reason? She wouldn’t sit still. SHE WAS 5 YEARS OLD!

I was pissed. We took her to the doctor and he said she was perfectly normal. After 2nd grade they said if she wasn’t given an autism label she would fail 3rd grade. We felt forced to sign a paper.

How fucked up is that?

My son is 28 years old and he has started taking Ritalin. He says it makes him calmer and helps him focus. I said Oookaaay.
