LOL...Ya know, this could just be a product of my generation! I'm 43 and when I was a teen/kid, if kids were a bit "hyper" they would be considered "high spirited" and the mothers had the little yellow helpers in the bathroom cabinet. Since these downers went very well with booze we'd always have a hell of a party with very little cash spent.
Now it's OUR kids with the dreaded ADD, not high spirited no more, and we got the kids on Ritilin. My one buddy has the whole family on Ritilin and he's always got a grinder and straw handy!
In the ol' days we used our mom's downers, now we grind up our kids meds. LOL:dance:
