52 percent of foster kids.....

52 percent of foster kids are on psychiatric drugs. Most were not on any form of medication before entering foster care. Ayn was not on any medications previous to foster care.
Do we really have all these kids sitting at home in need of medications?? I don`t believe so. I do believe that it makes it much easier to get funding and to insure kids are compliant. I`m sure foster homes have an easier time with a child on anti depressants. What a way to bandage a broken system. What a way to shut kids down. What a horrible life lesson.
