Big Pharma’s War On Our Children: 1 Million Kids Under Age 6 On Psychiatric Drugs

Authored by Mac Slavo via SHTFplan.com,

In the United States, there are one million children under the age of six on psychiatric drugs. This number is particularly disturbing, considering the horrifying side effects and ineffectiveness of a good number of these types of harmful drugs.

One in six Americans overall regularly take some type of medication in this category. However, children are now being swept up in Big Pharma’s desire to make money, not improve health. Mental health watchdog group Citizens Commission on Human Rights is drawing attention to the concerning fact that more than a million kids younger than six in our nation are currently taking these psychiatric drugs.

According to Natural News, around half of these children are four to five years old and an incredible 274,804 of them are younger than a year old. That’s right: babies are being given psychiatric drugs. The number rises for toddlers aged two to three, with 370,778 kids in this category taking psychiatric drugs overall. If this isn’t horrifying to you, congratulations on your brainwashing.

Data from IMS Health shows that the drug situation only gets worse as kids get older, with 4,130,340 kids aged 6 to 12 taking some type of psychiatric drug.

You might be forgiven for assuming that most of these statistics are made up by kids taking ADHD drugs given how common that approach seems to be nowadays, but it really only accounts for a small portion of it, with 1,422 of those younger than a year old and just over 181,000 of those aged four to five taking ADHD drugs. –Natural News

The biggest category of psychotic drugs given to children appears to be anti-anxiety drugs. Just over 227,132 babies under one-year-old and nearly 248,000 of those aged four to five take these medications. Again, babies are being given mind-altering drugs before their first birthday. But the news just gets worse from there. Experts believe these estimates are far too low and the real numbers are actually much higher, due in part to the tendency for some doctors to hand out psychiatric medications for “off-label” uses. This risky practice entails giving out a drug to treat something that it is not indicated for, and the long-term effects of such an approach are completely unknown.

When adults choose to take psychiatric medication, it may be ill-advised in many cases, but it is still their choice to make. Children, on the other hand, lack the cognition to fully understand the lifelong impact of such a choice, and this essentially amounts to forced medication. We already know that many doctors have a financial incentive to get young people to start taking these drugs, but why are their parents so willing to get on board? Many of them are also taking psychiatric medications, of course. In fact, it has practically become a way of life in our nation and many people think of these meds as harmless.

The side effects of these drugs are nothing to scoff at, however, with antianxiety, antidepressant and antipsychotic drugs linked to heart attacks, psychosis, suicidal ideation, diabetes, stroke, mania and sudden death. As if that weren’t bad enough, there’s also the fact that many of the high-profile public shootings in recent years were perpetrated by young people on such drugs, so not only do kids have the risk of dying when they take these meds, but they could also take out a whole classroom or movie theater with them. –Natural News

Is this a war on our children perpetrated by Big Pharma and condoned by the government? Maybe. Nothing seems impossible anymore.

Everyone already knows this.

No one is willing to do anything about it beyond, sometimes, talking about it.

Which usually ends up with an explanation of why it is necessary and must be done.

So why worry about it?

BTW, if you are worrying too much, there are drugs available to help you deal with it.

The important thing is that the Big Pharma companies give Tithes and Offerings to their personal Congress Critter who will continue to bless their pills’ use on innocent children across the land.

As long as the Congress Critter gets re-elected and the Pharma company is allowed to sell chemicals to disrupt the synaptic connections in as many children’s minds as possible, it doesn’t matter how many children get poisoned.

As long as their pineal glands are still edible.

I blame the parents. Period.

Would any of you sign your children up for daily opiod doses? Doubt it, but the parents who do want the kids docile and sluggish, might I say dull and easy to handle. Parents load these children up on sugar and bad food then drug them when they are out of control.

Like I said, I blame these idiot parents.

One of my nephews hit his head on a coffee table as a child and had seizures for a period when he was about 18 months old. They put him on Ritalin for whatever reason. By the time he was four years old, he would ask for his medication… “Granny, I think it’s time for my pill.”

I was horrified. The kid was dependent. He’s 40 years old and works as a low level department head at Walmart. Nothing to be ashamed of… an honest living to support a wife and two kids, but I suspect early addiction to Ritalin and other meds limited his abilities.

I did A LOT of research before having kids and did everything I could to keep toxic shit from them like BPA bottles (5 years before Oprah popularized the campaign against BPA), toxic detergents and soaps, non-organic fruits and veggies, VOCs in paints and carpeting, etc. I practically drove my wife nuts because she didn’t pay attention to it and I was continuously throwing away the crap she brought home from the stores. I also strictly enforced ZERO TV for the kids before they turned 3.

My brothers also did not pay any attention to any of that either.

Well, guess what? All my nephews and nieces had one or more developmental “issues” and/or ADHD, have had serious medical issues and are generally damaged in several significant ways. My girls, on the other hand, have no medical or developmental issues and are at the top of their classes academically and socially (5th and 1st grades).

My child rearing philosophy is that I need to ensure that I avoid anything that can limit their potential. The list of ways you can fuck up your kids is endless, so constant vigilance is required. This might actually require WORK and DISCIPLINE.

As I keep trying to get through to my wife, being 95% perfect in raising your kids could result in TOTAL FAILURE. There are many mothers of serial killers who still think their “special one” is a perfect child, if not for that one little thing…

I firmly believe that there would be many more geniuses and stable adults in the world today if all parents were as diligent and as well researched as I was. Instead, many are just selfish and lazy, always looking for ways to avoid making hard choices that might require them to sacrifice for the welfare of their kids.

I’d be curious to know if there is a correlation between single mother households and two-parent households and the kids on psychiatric drugs.
