bipolar children

Give me a fucking break. The  extension of the agri-militari-pharma-entertainment complex into family life marches on.

1.  Kids with behavioural problems are almost always a) malnourished b) badly parented and c) badly educated.  IMHO.  Some of them may have genuine mental health problems, but this shit does not happen in a vacuum.

2.  Let’s just medicate these problems so we don’t have to challenge the little snowflake parents, who get right pissed and litigious if somebody calls them a bad parent.

3.  Let’s just medicate these problems so we don’t prevent teachers from doing their jobs.  However they are defined these days.  On the basis of the ‘education’ my children received until they went to Purpose, I think high school teachers are in many (not all, but many) an unholy combo of jailer and propaganda peddler.

4.  Let’s just medicate these problems away because pills are cheaper than family counselling and don’t take as much time, which we need to spend in front of the television, imbibing messages that bad behaviour is good, up is down, and idiots make money every day by being idiots.

5.  Rinse, repeat.

6.  In twenty years, when all the kids that were medicated are obese, have diabetes, kidney failure and are still fucking nuts, open up a big can of class action lawsuits….

7…… Rinse, repeat.

One thought on “bipolar children”

  1. I had an “ADHD” 15 year old stand in front of me and tell me it was my job to do his laundry, his tent got soaked and his clothes were on the floor of the tent, because I am a woman.
    That is no ADHD kid. He is a budding sociopath. He agreed he was aware that what he said is offensive. I pointed out to him he was likely to have female bosses in the future, should he ever get a job, so he might repair that thought. Homework was to look up sociopath in the dictionary.

    Character is mostly formed in a child by the age of 8, and yet I don’t see anyone who gives children chores, responsibility, marks to measure up to. Schools do airy fairy putting people on to keep them with the lemming stream. By the time a kid hits the world, having had everything provided and no or little responsibility to his family, he is truly disabled Anyone notice how high the debts of college and university students are? They come from poor homes? Underprivileged? Since when is a student supposed to only eat in restaurants and not have a job? Are they really spending all of that other time on their studies? What kind of employee will that bring to the marketplace?
