Medication and Children

29preschool-t_CA1-articleLarge Sunday's New York Times' magazine had an article about depression in small children and the usage of medication to treat the depression. I'm not ready to talk about medicating children, because my views are too fickle at the moment. There are also some privacy issues at stake.

Helaine Olin at XX Factor weighs in. She points out the New York Times failed to mention that one of the therapists that was highlighted in the article, Joan Luby, a professor of psychiatry at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, "has a long-documented history of receiving money from the pharmaceutical industry."

Credibility gone. Is it so hard to find a source for an article that isn't receive money from Big Pharma?
