Evil Plots

Attention Deficit Disorder is bullshit. The drugs used to "control" ADD are a plot by evil to damage the next generation of children.

"ADD" used to be called hyperactivity or rambunctious activity. Children are supposed to run around and cause trouble. They are not supposed to be easily controlled zombies.

ADD drugs will have long term affects on the children as well as preventing them from growing up normally. The children are stigmatized by being labeled as ADD. The children have self development problems because they view themselves as sick people instead of normal people. Because they are children, they do not have the mental mechanisms that could help protect them from the mental problems they are likely to develop and suffer from.

The story below demonstrates just how insane people have become. Just exactly what craziness they do to their own children without having any idea at all of the long term health effects of these drugs.

The breakfast buffet at Camp Echo in New York State starts at a picnic table where children jostle for their morning medications: Zoloft for depression, Abilify for bipolar disorder, Guanfacine for twitchy eyes and a host of medications for attention deficit disorder. A quick gulp of water, a greeting from the nurse, and the youngsters move on to the next table for orange juice, cereal and chocolate-chip pancakes. The medication lines like the one at Camp Echo were unheard of a generation ago but have become fixtures at residential camps across the US. Between a quarter and a half of the youngsters at any given summer camp take daily prescription medications, experts say. Allergy and asthma drugs top the list, but behaviour management and psychiatric medications are now so common that nurses who dispense them no longer try to avoid stigma by pretending they are vitamins.

"All my best friends take something," said David Ehrenreich, 12, who has Tourette's syndrome yet feels at home here because boys with hyperactivity, mood disorders, learning disabilities and facial tics line up just as he does for their daily "meds".

Increasingly popular is a service offered by a private company called CampMeds, which provides a summer's worth of prepackaged pills to 6000 children at 100 camps. Some camp owners question the trend, however. Mark Popkin, who runs a camp in North Carolina, is among them. "It's universal, and nobody really knows if it's appropriate or safe," he said.
