 JK> Your son may mot be at risk for alcoholism and I don't have any

 JK> I DON"T WANT TO GET INVOLVED WITH KIDS WHO ARE NOT AT RISK FOR
 JK> ALCOHOLISM.  Period.  Do you understand this?
 Then why are you in this echo? Most of us have told you several times 
 that our children, and in my case my grandchildren, have no history of
 Alcoholism...you keep trying to smash this down our throats without
 listening to what we are saying to you....
 
 JK> My quarrel is with those who will not take the time to make a
 JK> differential diagnosis between those who are and those who are not at
 JK> risk. And treat them accordingly.
 
 Fine, you have taken the time to *instruct* us according to your great
 knowledge about this subject....WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AD(H)D...
 at least, not the true AD(H)D child....I have told you that my doctor
 and my daughter's doctor took a complete family history....
 
 JK> Children at risk for genetic alcoholism need someone who understands
 JK> this problem.
 Okay, we acknowledge that fact...and I am sure *if* the need is there, we,
 as parents, will do what is necessary to find someone that understands this
 problem...but *you* had better believe it will be a doctor, not a nurse.
