A.D.D. Is It Just a Cover Up for Early Signs of Alcaholism and Drug Addiction?

Question by heather t: A.D.D. Is it just a cover up for early signs of alcaholism and drug addiction?
I am a drug addict, and so is my husband, we have a 12 year old son I never used drugs or alcahol during pregnancy but never the less I believe children show signs of the “disease”at early ages and everyone wants to call it ADD and then give the child who is already more apt to use because of the hereditary factors, they want to give the child ridalin?? a narcotic?? Just what they need right I say wrong you may as well give the little hyper terd a big fat line of cocaine to start his day… I refuse to give that drug to my son…How many agree with any of this…Hyper kids just need more attention there is no magic pill that will fill a void only you as a parent can fill and ever met a kid that was on ridalin for years all through childhood?? I have and they have nowhere jobs and turned out “slow” that drug along with any controlled substance messes up the greatest minds of even adults, imagine what it does to a kids mind after time…If you dont want your kid burnt out …

I have to disagree with you, my son has ADHD and he takes medate which is a stimulate, but there are natural medications that help with the hyper child. I do agree that when children are hyper you need to a better parent. Medication is to help them understand what is be taught to them and they don’t always have to be on their medication when they learn how to deal with all the information that is being shown to them
