When drugging replaced spanking
USA Today recently reported that the number of Americans taking antidepressants is soaring. This could possibly be in direct connection to the controversial TeenScreen survey given to children as young as 9 years old in public schools. TeenScreen has been responsible for policing the mental health of children over the past decade. It is significant that this mental-screening process usurps parental rights over the care of their own children.

Legal, Widespread, and Dangerous: Drugging Kids in Foster Care
Years ago, rubbing a little brandy on the gums of a teething child was thought to soothe and do no lasting harm. Parents of today who disapprove should be aware of just how often children are prescribed powerful, mind-altering medicines.

The Psychiatric Drugging of America's Foster Children
The Psychiatric Drugging of America's Foster Children
The most vulnerable among us are the littlest victims. Young children, torn from their birth families through various, often unspeakable tragedies. These children end up in state supervised foster care and too often are passed from hand to hand, house to house. There were approximately 662,000 children in foster care in the United States in 2010.

Dark Secrets: Treating Foster Care Children Like Medical Lab Rats
Medical experiments conducted on vulnerable people, people who are unable to give consent or people who have been misled, are always wrong. It is also wrong when there is reason to believe that the person undergoing the experiment faces serious risks as a result. If you put the two together you have something we used to call a crime. In fact, we prosecuted the Nazis for this behavior.

Shame of a nation: US tested AIDS drugs on foster children
This is a shameful story. It follows a history in this country of the government subjecting individuals to cruel medical and drug tests. I’m reminded of the Tuskegee syphilis experiments conducted between 1932 and 1972 (see photo above).

Revised DSM-5 Could Open Up Wider Legal Claims
Revised DSM-5 Could Open Up Wider Legal Claims
The American Psychiatric Association is revising its highly influential Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, currently known as DSM-IV (the fifth version will be “DSM-V” or, since a switch to Arabic numbering is planned, “DSM-5″). Nearly 8,000 persons have signed a petition, sponsored by the Society for Humanistic Psychology, Division 32 of the American Psychological Association, which challenges the revision’s proposed widening of the definitions of mental disorder. The letter associated with the petition warns that the revision proposes to lower diagnostic thresholds for many categories of disorder without good reason, as well as introducing new constructs such as “Internet Addiction Disorder” that have “no basis in the empirical literature.” The expansion could lead to inappropriate medical treatment as well as other ill effects.

Antipsychotic drugs may lead to a heightened risk of diabetes in kids, according to new research.
Antipsychotic drugs are used in children to treat conditions such as autism and bipolar disorder. The new findings agree with previous research suggesting that in addition to causing weight gain in kids, these drugs could increase the risk of diabetes in some patients.
