The number of American children diagnosed with bipolar disorder increased 40-fold over the past decade. But now many psychiatrists are backing away from the diagnosis.
Many are worried that thousands of children may have been mistakenly diagnosed with the disorder. Overzealous doctors, quirks in the health insurance system and aggressive marketing by drug companies all contributed to the explosion of bipolar diagnoses.
According to the Star Tribune:
"The profession's about-face could help the next generation of troubled children, but it also raises questions about the harm done to children who shouldn't have received either the diagnosis or the potent drugs used to treat it."
See Dr Mercola's Comment
Here at American Family Rights Association, we deal with this problem on a continual basis.
I was looking forward to one of Dr. Mercola's EXCELLENT articles on this subject. He certainly nailed the truth in-
The Child Abuse Laws Which Could Destroy Your Reputation
Legal Child Abduction: How the Government Profits by Stealing Your Children
Posted By Dr. Mercola | February 05 2011
But unfortunately, in THIS article, Dr Mercola steps completely over "The Problem", which is Dr. Benjamin Spock's 1946 book "Baby and Child Care".
I sincerely believe that what we're seeing in many of these "troublesome" children are the effects of inappropriate or deficient DISCIPLINE. We are now into Generation 4 of kids raised under the "New, Kinder, Gentler" world theory of child rearing popularized by Dr Benjamin Spock. Which is now STRICTLY and BRUTALLY ENFORCED by the Communists (or Fascists- you choose) known as Children's Protective Services.
