Ritalin for Toddlers



I finally understand how young children end up on stimulant medications for ADD/ADHD. I have the most hyper child that I have ever procreated and I suppose that if you weren't madly in love with this sort of behavior it could seem troublesome. Cybele is truly a maniac. She is in constant motion from the moment that she awakens until the moment that we force her to go to sleep. She, unlike our other children has the run of the entire house and she utilizes every inch of it. When I say every inch, I really do mean every inch. For example, recently cousin Bridget came for a vacation and we were making cookies of course. Spritz cookies with chocolate drizzle and sprinkles on top, which means there were sprinkles for decorating on the table and we were going back and forth between the kitchen and dining room while the cookies baked. At one point during this process Uncle Boo laughed loudly and we all came to see what was so funny. Cybele dancing with the sprinkles on top of the table of course.
