The problem is that their mindset is also closed.
They, especially Jane, refuse to look at any possibilities other than their 
own point of view.
Ritilan does work for some.
It doesn't work for others.
The only way to find out which is which is to try it.
It did not work for my son, so we stopped giving it to him.
A friend in our ADHD group has a son the same age, and started him on Ritilan 
at the same time I started my son on it.
It worked fantastically for him.
No problems then and no problems now.
Both are 33 years old and doing well.
Before you start yelling about the "Long term affects", remember, I am 
talking about 1967.  30 years ago.
