RITALIN STUDY LEFT BIG QUESTIONS UNANSWERED
The new Ritalin study is highly self-serving. Read between the lines
and you find that 70 percent of the children in the study were
experiencing depression and anxiety during the study while getting
behavior modification and being drugged. An objective look would
assume that the behavior modification and drugs were not helping and
probably harming.
The junk scientists with their failed educational theories and
tax-lined pockets have left our public schools in shambles.
Instead of owning up to their errors, they shamelessly declare large
numbers of children as defective and give them potent drugs that have
been documented as causing suicide, extreme agitation and violence.
Then they arrogantly assume the public is stupid enough to accept
their study as objective or impartial. Guess again.
