I have been noticing a new trend that has been gaining momentum. It seems every other kid I meet is on some type of drug to aid them with attention.This is a major concern of mine that doctors are pushing to put children on drugs even as early as five.
I watched a news item on Global television and there was a mom of four with all her children on drugs. I am wondering when does a parent ask him or herself what's wrong with this picture? In the very near future we are going to have a generation of zombies with all the side effects from these drugs.
The problem is no one wants to be bothered anymore with taking time out to let children just be children. No it takes too much work. They would rather have kids on drugs and screens. It makes life easier and the doctors get richer.
Who is going to clean up the mess that will be left behind from this 'Drugged up Generation'? We are in problems as a country and it is not until a few years when the present generation gets older that we will realise it.
Let's talk about this and not sweep it under the carpet. Share your views as I would love to hear them.
