The only one here who is aware of such children is you.  You came in here 
with a very strong statement that AD(H)D should be treated with supplements, 
not Ritalin; and you brought in alcoholism after you were challenged.  Then 
you stated that Ritalin should not be given to children with a family history 
of alcoholism.  Now you are saying that you are aiming at children from 
families with a history AND in which Ritalin does not work?
There is still not anyone here talking about such children: no parents, no 
children, no one but you.  That population must not be represented here.  
Perhaps that is why your blanket assertions that supplements should be used 
in place of medication did not meet with acceptance.
