I saw a friend of mine's bottle of adderall which is for her kid who has ADHD, but the bottle was labeled "keep out of reach of children"...
Now I cant help picture her danging an adderall pill just out of reach of her ritalin addicted child saying "Sorry you have to jump for it, I have to keep it out of your reach, bottle says so", and then pulling it back like a cat going after a toy every time the child desperately reaches for the adderall.
There is a reason I am not a father :)
They did solve the problem but years later it was found that these woman have problems getting pregnant. Some 500 in the Netherlands.
@hanswolters yes, its obviously important to weight the benefits and risk..
If your child is struggling to reach their full potential then a drug , assuming it is significantly helpful in improving that potential, is worth a greater risk than if the drug has less important positive effects (I'm not sure height is all that important a goal personally, within reason)...
But yea if a kid is given adderall and there is a 5% improvement in their performance you might deem the risk not worth it.. if there is a 300% improvement perhaps it is.
