We've Got Issues: Children and Parents in the Age of Medication
by Judith Warner
by Judith Warner
Open, curious and honest. Warner started this book on the premise that parents were overmedicating to achieve the "perfect" child, but realized early on that for many, meds are the last ditch effort to save their child and family. Being one of those parents I was happily taken by surprise as she jumped across the chasm of her original premise to get to the truth, how broken the system in the US is as it relates to the care of our mentally ill children. I loved this book so much I wrote her personally and was thrilled to hear back from her. I greatly admire her candor and her strength in admitting her misperception.
