According to a study conducted by the Children’s Hospital in Boston more than half a million children suffer from bad reactions to medications in the United States EVERY year! To me this is an outrage.
Doctors are so ‘script happy’ that children are being over-medicated, medicated incorrectly, and experimented with in emergency rooms and doctor offices all across America. But doctors are not the only ones to blame. It is a parents responsibility to PREVENT their children from becoming sick. Parents also trek their children to the doctors office demanding drugs.
Until we get more educated about how to STAY well, it is unfortunate, but these numbers will only increase. Send your children to bed by 8pm instead of allowing them to go to bed when you do. Give children water and fresh juiced juices instead of those ‘juice drinks’ that are made with things you cannot even pronounce.
Most parents would do anything for their children yet, that does NOT translate in how they are fed. Breakfast is a bowl of sugar masquerading as cereal. Lunch is a portable, processed pre-packaged container of chemicals, and dinner is microwaved or out-of-a-drive- thru because we have no time to cook. Mmmmm…it is no wonder these numbers are so high!
We need to take an inventory of what we feed our children to reduce the need to enter a doctor’s office in the first place.
