Understanding and Nurturing Over Medicating
Early medication for children with attention issues may overlook the root causes of their behavior, which often stem from their stressful environments. The true problem may not lie within the child, but rather in the surrounding dynamics, especially parental reactions that are often harsh due to misunderstanding. By fostering a positive, supportive atmosphere at home and addressing their own stresses, parents can significantly influence their child's development and behavior. Emphasizing understanding over medication allows for quicker positive changes in the child's responsiveness and overall well-being.
