'changing childhood…we pathologize childhood now.'

Very scary stuff.  Parents and doctors must be educated.

I enjoyed that clip.  What a sensible man.  I was expecting him to be more extreme in his views.

 

But no, very balanced, looking at why we as a society have ended up in this situation and appreciating how diificult it is to turn such a juggernaut around. 

 

But turn around it will ....... eventually.

Morreweg--I found Anatomy of an Epidemic completely eye-opening.  Bought copies for all three of my grown kids with instructions to read if they ever consider going on or putting any of my future grandchildren any of these psych meds.  His evidence seems incontrovertible.

This is an awesome clip that succinctly covers the major talking points of his longer lectures.

 

I've got to remember to attach this one to my signature. Very nice find.  Thanks, Claudia. :smitten:

The irony - I thought I'd listened to everything Mr. Whitaker has said on YouTube, but I don't remember seeing this one!

 

Oh well. The link is in my signature now and it's the perfect amount of time for someone going through withdrawal. ;)

 

His book saved my life. Truly a great journalist.
