I knew that American kids were overmedicated, but I had no idea it was to this degree. Doctors really are drugging our children and we need to stop turning a deaf ear on this subject.
"The amount of drugs being given to U.S. children is outrageous, and the extent of the problem becomes clear when you compare the statistics with other countries. U.S. children are getting three times more prescriptions for antidepressants and stimulants, and up to double the amount of antipsychotic drugs than kids from Germany and the Netherlands."
