Ablechild.org – Parents for Label and Drug Free education https://www.ablechild.org/

AbleChild: Parents for Label and Drug Free Education consists of a growing number of parents outraged over both the subjective labeling (ADHD, ADD, OCD, ODD) and pervasive drugging of our children.  Our organization’s goal in creating this website is to provide information to parents regarding the many subjective labels and the risks associated with drug “treatment” that are critical to their ability in making an informed decision. 

“Junk Science” pervades our schools and is being misrepresented to parents worldwide as scientific fact!!!  Parents need to fight for their right to full informed consent!!! Do not accept solely based on what you are told but question, delve, and more importantly always re-question.  Our organizations goal is to provide you with the information that is sadly, being denied to you regarding ADHD, ADD, and the many other subjective labels being placed upon our children.

Quotables found in an article by Tom DeWeese, September 26, 2006 -American Policy Centre:

• “They (a committee of the American Psychiatric Association, APA) made a list of the most common symptoms of emotional discomfiture of children; those which bother teachers and parents most, and in a stroke that could not be more devoid of science or Hippocratic motive – termed them a ‘disease.’ Twenty five years of research, not deserving of the term ‘research,’ has failed to validate ADD/ADHD as a disease.” – Dr. Fred A. Baughman, a leading expert and critic of the ADD theory
• “As yet no distinctive pathophysiology for the disorder has been delineated.” - Paul Leber of the Food and Drug Administration, 1994
• “We are also unaware that ADHD has been validated as a biologic/organic syndrome or disease.” – Gene R. Haislip of the Drug Enforcement Administration, 1995
• “I would like to have an objective diagnosis for the disorder (ADHD). Right now psychiatric diagnosis is completely subjective.”  – James M. Swanson, leading ADD advocate, 1998
• “I agree that we have not yet met the burden of demonstrating the specific pathophysiology that we believe underlies this condition.” – Dr. Castellanos on his extensive research into ADHD, 1998
