Dear Webmaster,

My 14 year old son Matthew died from Ritalin use.

We were threatened by the school social worker that If we didn't comply with their diagnosis and take him to the doctor and get him on some Ritalin, that we could be charged with neglecting his educational and emotional needs.

They explained ADHD as though it was a objective disorder. Well I have sense done much research to find out that is a bunch of hog wash. I have created the website www.ritalindeath.com to inform parents of the truth behind ADHD.

With the horrible experience of losing my son from the medication Ritalin. It has caused me to get to the bottom of it, and find out what the heck is going on, and see what I can do to help other families from going through the same hell we are now living.

My site tells our story in detail, with much information that I have compiled. I hope that you will conceder putting my website on yours as a link?

I feel that it is very important that parents get more information than just a little selective information paid for by drug companies.

Sincerely,

Lawrence Smith
