 JL> OK so many people think ritalin is making zombies out of kids.  I
 JL> have twins  boys now 9 soon to be 10.  They where on ritalin for almost
 JL> 3 years until I said no more and the doctor agreed.  We 
 JL> wound up moving and they started a new school the first 
 JL> thing we discussed was that the boys would not go back on 
 JL> ritalin.  Well here we are it's spring break and it's been 
 JL> hard and very rough.  I have started messing with herbs and 
 JL> lo- and behold I have found something that helps them.  A 
 JL> multi-vitamin and the herb valarian that can be pick-up 
 JL> almost at any store wal-mart has it for under 5 dollars 
 JL> give it to them as needed.  You have to work with it to get 
 JL> the dosage right but it is natural with no bad side-
 JL> effects. And kids need vitamins so you kill two birds with 
 JL> one stone there.

 Just an opinion, but you sound like a parent anyone would be lucky to have.
 Best of luck with your boys, and Welcome to this echo base. BTW - I've used
 Valerian (and vitamins) for a number of things and found it has helped me.
... Cabbage and Mayo: a good idea and its slaw
