Has it occurred to you that many of the children in question are happy being medicated, as are many adults? In any case, who are you to tell other people what's good for them?
This might be a little out of context, but: I'd be willing to bet that about 75% of the people on this planet would be happy being meidicated, and at least 50% get that way on a regular basis. The real question is, is it a good idea to teach kids that drugs are the best answer to a problem? Again and again I will state that I do believe that ADD is a problem, but I'd bet that at least half the time you are medicating the kids because the parents have the problem.
