Is It Safe to Medicate Our Child with ADHD? additudemag.com/slideshows/w…
STOP saying/writing/thinking MEDICATE THE CHILD. The child isn't the problem. The genetic, neurodevelopmental disorder called ADHD is the problem. Medicate that. I started to say please, but enough is enough.

Daughter: mom do you get paid when you’re on call.
Me: only the RVUs from babies seen at the hospital or patients seen in clinic.
Also me: which sounds ridiculous now that I say it out loud.
We do so much uncompensated work as physicians.

ADHD is hearing almost every authority figure from childhood say you are gifted and have so much potential, but you’re wasting it by being too lazy, spacey, stupid, or selfish.

COVID has taken so much from children. We can now protect ages 12 and up-get them back to school, camp, sports, grandparents, friends and family. Let’s hurry. We have this chance. Let’s do it for all those who suffered and died before the vaccine as an act of hope in the future.

I am an emergency physician. My increased exposure means that I have chosen to isolate from my family, to keep them safe. This is how I see my daughters (pictured with their cousins, with whom they’re staying).
If I can do this, you can stay home.

Last week, @RealTimers with @billmaher included disproved theories and unfounded fears about vaccines. There is too much at stake right now not to speak out when people in positions of power and influence spread misinformation. My take: ow.ly/VpbU50x6iLm
