This guy wasn't a kid but my wife is a jr. high/middle school teacher and I'm always shocked when she tells me the number of kids in school who take some type of mood altering medication. It's seems like 1/4 of the kids now days are on prozac or some mood altering drug. When I was in school there may have been 1 in a class or something that had issues like that.
Maybe we are becoming a little over medicated?
