So they are basically admitting they have no idea what they are talking about and published this article to scare parents. Awesome.

“Children taking ADHD medicines could be prescribed additional drugs for many reasons, and the Journal analysis didn’t assess what triggered the prescribing. ADHD and other conditions including depression and anxiety often occur together, researchers have found.”

This is such a key point, and one which the NYT, WaPo, CNN, Axios, Politico, etc. don't understand.

If you are at all committed to small-l liberalism, then that commitment must now be your central identity as an org.

The Trump Voters Who Are Losing Patience Some of the president’s own voters are ready to blame him if their lives don’t improve soon.

Do MAGA voters love what Trump is doing. Yes. But a lot of Trump voters aren’t MAGA. They just wanted their cost of living to go down. Now, some of these voters are starting to worry he might not be laser focused on improving the economy. My latest:

In a TV panel on Tuesday, and I joked that Canada's promised "24/7 eyes on the border" should be some hockey sticks with googly eyes jammed in a snowbank.
Aaron and his mom KJ, in Winnipeg, liked the idea, so they made us some truly amazing border sentries. I hope Mr. Trump feels more secure now.

I am assuming you read this one? 😂

Brett Stephens has a truly stupid “never Trump was wrong, maybe Trump’ll be fine” columns in yesterday’s NYT. Same day the house GOP makes it clear (at Trump’s obvious behest) they’re going to investigate Liz Cheney. Sure guys, it’s all gonna be fine! Feel free to look away.

As ABA is one of the evidenced-based treatments for ASD, it should be available to all who would benefit from it - though this certainly isn’t all people with ASD.
