Frontline "The Medicated Child"
DJ KoontzWith over four million children now on behavior modifying medications - some starting as young as two years old - Frontline continues its investigation into the controversial practice of medicating kids. Are the drugs safe? How young can you detect mental illness in a child? Is medication really the answer? As the debate grows more fierce, Frontline confronts psychiatrists, researchers, and big pharma about the risks and benefits of prescription drugs for troubled children.
