    Whether this has anything to do with the ordinary layman usage
    of the word "addiction" is debatable.

    Maybe you should read the Biederman article and see how they used the
    term.

    Rog is doing a bit of weaseling. He knows that there is ample research out
    there that shows that Ritalin, when used as prescribed, does not meet the
    clinical meaning of the word addiction so he is wording the claim in such a
    way that allows him to wiggle if you take him up on it.

    And CBI knows there is a huge problem because it is NOT taken as prescribed.

    And there has been insubstantial science on the long term use.

    Researchers are wondering, what it does to the brain.

    CBI should also know IT IS BEING ABUSED AND IS A HUGE PROBLEM, so the *if* is a
    big one.

    CBI should also know it is being prescribed for kids under six.

    THAT IS ALSO ABUSE.

    So WHO is weaseling??

    the "abusers" as you like to call them don't have ADHD at all....so that is NOT

    CBI is a doctor...you are a high school dropout....I think he "knows" a bit
    more than you give him credit for...you,,on the other hand...get a bug up your
    butt,,and let your fingers do the searching...and continue to post things you
    neither read ,,,nor understand..

    so don't go lecturing a pedatrician...he is not treating YOUR kid...so it is
    NONE of your business...
