-Caveat Lector-
Check out a Utah case involving some homeschoolers that did not want
to put one of their children on Ritalin. Was used as a springboard to
take children away from their parents and put them in the school district.
These parents - one had developed physical problems that made work
hard to find and the mother was keeping things on a shoe sting so that
she could still home school. This case went after welfare recipients that
wanted to educate their children. Peter Breggin (he has a web site, that
did not mention this case) was one of the witnesses against Ritalin.
Either he is not as much as a expert as he claims or there was something
else. Could be the forces that be were just to strong.
Anyway the children were taken away, foster homes, one or two sexually
abused in the homes, I believe one of them has already committed suicide.
If someone follows on this will you please send me the update. At one
time there was a web page supporting this family.
I also "think" that I remember mention of more social workers hired
that supported the idea of the state raising children.
