Dear Parent, Parents have a legal right to decide, free of government coercion, which
psychotropic medications, if any, are best for their kids. Many parent's
however are unaware of their rights, and feel powerless in the face of
pressure from school officials. We are in the process of
raising the money needed to prepare a Parent's Rights Kit, for those
of you who are feeling government pressure to place your child on Ritalin or
a similar psycho-stimulant drug. Please
DONATE to help get
this kit into the hands of parents! Our Parent's Rights
Kit will:
Include a "Your Legal Rights" brochure, explaining your legal rights to make
medication decisions in the best interest of your child.
Educate and empower parents to exercise and enforce
your right to informed consent.
Provide helpful information about how to talk with
your child about drugs.
Include spectrum of resources for learning more
about psycho-stimulants such as Ritalin and about ADHD.
Sample letters, including:
A sample letter that a parent might send to a
school board invoking her right to decide what's in her child's best
interest and demanding that her medication choices be respected
A sample sign-on letter to a school board by
concerned parents
A sample letter to an elected official regarding
coercive school policies in their district.
- Information and advice about who to contact in the event parental
informed consent rights are being infringed.
