ok my son is 6yrs old he was diagnosed with early onset bipolar last year. the thing is when i post a question mentioning this i get so many replies that a child CAN NOT be bipolar that it is due to bad parenting and i need to quit "doping" my kid up. This goes for ADHD mommies too ive seen so many replies to questions saying that ADHD is just a cop out for bad parenting. well if this is true then how come when my son is the the correct combo of antipsychotics and mood stabilizers he is a perfectly normal happy alert focused child and with out them he is extremely violent, has severe mood swings, ect. (too many symptoms with BPkids to name)? and thats the case with ADHD kids why do meds such as aderall that would make a normal person bounce off the walls calm them down?(now i do agree that alot of ADHD kids are over medicated they walk around like little zombies but there is no doubt in my mind that they need these meds maybe just a lower dose)
