In Dendermonde, Belgium sometime today, a man stabbed and killed two young children and one woman worker. As well as slashing the bodies of 10 other children. The man who did it just walked out and got on his bike, but was later found and arrested. The man had no connection with the day care. What is this world coming to?! My other question is how did this man happen to get into the day care if he had nothing to do with it?! There must have been something psychologically wrong with this man, because who in their right mind would ever hurt a child.
People are setting the bar of being a human to high that only pills will allow us to reach that bar. What exactly is normal and what isn't, I believe we've lost sight of this. To some people the only way to feel normal is taking pills, but there is always something that enhances our performance no matter what. In the article i was reading, they are talking about anxiety pills, do people really need these pills or not? In the end it's always better to weigh the benefits and non-benefits person by person. I will forever be on a type of pill, it's a thyroid re placer but without it I would be completely out of it and tired all the time. So I mean there are some types of pills that people should have always while others it might be just in their heads they need to be dependant on some type of thing.

I agree there are some types of pills that people do have to be dependant on and that is just the way life works. The only things that really upsets me is when we think something is wrong with our children in todays society and we right away turn to thinking they should be on some sort of med.
ReplyDeleteI dont think that putting kids on meds should be the first resort at all. We should be trying to help our kids so that they dont become dependant on these pills and then have to be on them for the rest of their lives.
Its pills like the thyoid re placer that you are on that are ok. But we dont need to be putting our children on all these different pills so that we can better control them or whatever what situation might be. I think we need to be adults and love and care for our children. We need to be there for them and to help them grow into mature adults with out using medical technology all the time.
A lot of people's "problems" are in their heads. And they dependencies on pills to make them "feel" better, aka numb them, can be controlled and even stopped. If you've ever seen Dr. Drew, that can be a tough process to get through. I personally would never want to be around someone that is getting off of pills. Nor would I want to be that person, not while on pills and surely not while getting off of them.
ReplyDeleteAnd the fact that that man went into the day care and did that is horrible. Hopefully they do to him what he did to those three. Or he just sits in prison and rots. One of the two.
