Millions of children take Ritalin for Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. The drug's manufacturer, Novartis, claims that Ritalin is the "solution" to this widespread problem. But hidden behind the well-oiled public-relations machine is a potentially devastating reality: children are being given a drug that can cause the same bad effects as amphetamine and cocaine, including behavioral disorders, growth suppression, neurological tics, agitation, addiction, and psychosis. Talking Back to Ritalin uncovers these and other startling facts and translates the research findings for parents and doctors alike. An advocate for education not medication, Dr. Breggin empowers parents to channel distracted, disenchanted, and energetic children into powerful, confident, and brilliant members of the family and society.Binding Type: Paperback

LOVE. Ordering more colors.
Size: Medium, Color: Porpoise, Size: Medium, Color: Porpoise
I absolutely LOVE this sweater.
This sweater is so flattering and comfortable. Great quality and the material is cozy and soft. I will be ordering this in more colors for sure! I just got it today but I know this will be my go to this season for lounging as well as being out and about. It could easily be dressed up or down and I love the Porpoise color I got (see photos). Originally I thought this came in a set but I still thinks its worth the price for just the sweater and I plan to order the shorts anyway. I got the medium and it fit true to size and so flattering. I am 5ft 2 and about 140lbs being heavier in my legs/hips. I generally wear a small/medium on top depending on the style and a large/XL on bottom. Definitely will be getting more colors!!

beautiful Perfect Sweater! Highly Recommend!
Size: 3X, Color: Zephyr Pink
Gorgeous color. Soft and snuggly. Cool enough in summer for office wear. My office sometimes gets cold even in the summer and this sweater is perfect. I wear it with brown slacks and it looks very professional but could be dressed down for casual affairs. The cut is generous and maybe even runs a little large however, I like the loose fit. I still can't get over the neutral pink color. It is just amazing and was a real steal as it was on sale when I ordered it!

Stylish and comfortable
Size: 3X, Color: Porpoise
I love the slit in the back, it elevates the sweater well. It’s comfortable and made out of a thick, quality material. The only downside is that the sleeves are quite long and don’t roll up well. Otherwise I love it!

Cute but pills
Size: 3X, Color: Chocolate
Runs a little big. I’m good with that. The style and brown color are great! I love the wide sleeves. The material is very soft and cozy…but I wore it once for 3 hours and the sides and stomach area pilled. I am disappointed. I am going to hand wash it and see what it looks like. I may need to return it.

Perfect little set! Get both
Size: Small, Color: Porpoise
Such a soft sweater! You have to get the matching set! The quality is amazing and the material is nice and thick for those chilly days! The set feels like a more expensive brand so you get a good deal! I washed it and it did not shrink and the color did not fade. I hung to dry and the fabric still looks perfect!
