This is following up on tatum channing's rant about ADD or ADHD medications (adderal, vyvanse, amphetamines, ritalin) . Ann made a very pertinent comment:

This is the title of an article by Channing Tatum (should I know who that is? - ok, i just googled him, interesting) on medicines for ADD or ADHD.
Like many bizarre or erroneous ideas, there is a grain of truth - ritalin and the other stimulants (and some anti-depressants) work on the same neurochemicals -norepineprine and dopamine. There is some difference in the chemical structure and ritalin does not have its effect as fast, thus minimizing any "high" if used…

I am pro science, but today let's look at some of the problems with science.
1. Some of the studies are not well done, and some are actually faked -one glaring example is the English doctor who faked data linking autism and vaccines - he has since lost his license for this; he is responsible for a number of child deaths because of his "work".

Below is my entry into the fray provoked by an article 'Why French Children Don't Have ADHD', which discussed child rearing methods and the benefits of spanking, among other things. Lots of interesting comments.
1. I don't know the best way to raise kids, apparently some others do yet they're not in agreement. It probably partly depends on the particular kid and the particular parent.

Are you a person who believes that you always do what you intend to do? Most people would probably answer yes. However, despite what you may believe, research shows that the majority of people, do not. In fact, most individuals have far less control then they believe they do. As frustrating as this may be, there are ways of establishing good habits and overcoming those existing ones that seem to get in our way. But first let’s look at how habits are…

One year back, I shifted to a house right in the midst of natural surroundings.
Thereafter, While on a business trip to the city of Mumbai I laid my hand on a pair of field glasses.
Back home, the field glasses helped me take a closer look at the surroundings and get me a clearer understanding of where our apartment was located, vis a vis other prominent structures in the vicinity and beyond.
I have carried the Binoculars while on some personal outings…
