The Medication Debate. Over the past 10 years,
children being diagnosed with behavioral problems relating to disabilities such
as ADHD and bipolar disorder have risen exponentially. Furthermore, the Center
for Disease Control (CDC) states that in 2007, 5.4 million children, ages 4 to
17, have been diagnosed with ADHD, and 2.7 million are taking some type of
prescribed medication (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2013).
After watching the video, The Medicated Child, Chapter
1: What is Going On?, and visiting the webpage, Drug Treatment of
ADHD,stateyouropinioninregardtousingmedicationtomodifychildren’sbehavior. Do
you believe that parents should be required to inform teachers if their child
is taking a behavior modifying drug? What medication do you feel should have
mandatory disclosure, which should be optional, and why? Finally, should
behavior therapy be mandatory for any child taking a prescribed behavior
modification drug? Include at least one additional source to help support your
argument.
