Since 1987, the number of children diagnosed with ADHD has
increased dramatically. Alarmed by this trend, family therapist,
Marilyn Wedge, set out to understand how ADHD became an American
epidemic-and to find out whether there are alternative treatments
to powerful prescription drugs. In A DISEASE CALLED CHILDHOOD,
Wedge examines the factors that have created a generation addicted
to stimulant drugs. Instead of focusing only on treating symptoms,
she looks at the various potential causes of hyperactivity and
inattention in children and behavioral and environmental-as opposed
to strictly biological-treatments that have been proven to help. In
the process, Wedge offers a new paradigm for child mental
health-and a better, happier and less medicated future for American
children.
