1. Going to playground instead of playing toxic tv game.

2. If your child is making good grades consistently, then they do not have ADHD that needs medications.

3. OMG…. do NOT drug your kids! Find different ways to work with the issues at hand! I am horrified at what goes on in this world!

4. Okay so I'm an aerospace and mechanical dual major engineering student in my senior year at Missouri s&t and I got to about 5 minutes in before I was just way to annoyed to keep watching. What in the world have we come to? Good grief.

5. Hmmm, they are frustrated by their own kids. Imagine how stressed teachers are when they have 30 kids in a classroom. Let’s be real about why parents want their kids back in school. When the kids are back in school, maybe parents will be more supportive of their kids’ teachers.

6. I'd love to know WHY drugs are the first and ONLY answer the "medical" community knows. I totaly agree with getting outside, you bet, but the weather…hmm, why not give a new hobby a shot ? Learning something NEW is a GREAT mental stimulator. Kids don't need to be in front of a screen all the time. And I agree "parents" have forgotten HOW to parent. The novelty of the "baby" wears off….and they don't have a clue…result…it is actually the poor kid who suffers, and no "medication" is going to "help".

7. Start with coffee. Take her to starbucks and try that first.
   Good luck getting treatment in a red state.

8. You need a license to have a dog but not a kid that's the problem.

9. Seriously!! They want to give kids drugs for being kids? This shouldn't happen!

10. The main thing is that technology sucks goes good then boom internet down have to start over are the fact the sites dont work half the time lol

11. Get informed of what’s really going on in our country behind the scenes what a criminal government in Hollywood are doing and their connection to child trafficking in the horrific atrocities that are happening behind our back’s go on bit chute, rumble and YouTube

12. The lady parent has munchausen biproxy. Probably wants a check for her child’s “disability”. I see it every fugging day! Even schools are guilty of over diagnosing kids. For every special needs child. The school gets a larger chunk for each from the Fed. They even make the curriculum super hard and confusing on purpose.. Making it appear more kids have learning disabilities. My kids’ curriculum is ridiculous compared to mine.

13. Schools are not here to fix your kid’s problems. Please learn how to parent or don’t have them! We don’t need more people anyway. Adoption is a great option!

14. Our Izzy had no help through school. Eau Claire school system sucks

15. Before drugs get outside and enjoy nature. If the weather is brutal create fun exercise time indoors… turn up the music, dance and clean the house.

16. Shame on the medical field for diagnosis adhd during a pandemic!! Parents have gotten so lazy and the poor kids dont have a clue what parents are doing to them!!

17. Awesome!! More kids on medications and future drug addicts. How about yoga, breathing!! Parents taking the easy way out!!!

18. Who looks to Drugging their kids Blows my mind Their kids for games sakes Let them be
    Get them off their screens I can assure you their behaviour etc will change

19. DIAGNOSIS: BORED TO DEATH – GET OUTSIDE AND PLAY BALL

20. I hope the parents are seeking the diagnosis for themselves, "My kids are being kids who have been cooped up for almost a year!" You decided to have those kids, now decide to be parents. #LazyParents #SuckItUpButtercup

21. Issues surrounding COVID are social problems, not medical ones. Pushing drugs on kids is going to create problems down the line.
