Now, if your "doctor" has a big vat of bubbling brew in their living room, and sticks pins in little dolls, I might be asking that question...
I do believe that we, as a society, are certainly OVER medicated... especially our children. It's been that way for a while... remember the song "Mother's Little Helper" ? Valium...
