Ambien Mg Strengths

CNN.com posted an article today on their website entitled, “Teen drivers with ADD a problem on the road.”  You can check out the article by clicking here…

Here are the “alleged” highlights of the article:

• ADD / ADHD compounds the problem of teen car accidents
• Drivers with ADHD have a greater tendency to speed
• People with ADD / ADHD are more sensitive to the effects of alcohol
• ADD / ADHD teens should be in a learner’s permit program longer

Author Judy Fortin has Ambien Mg Strengths done an excellent job outlining the research in the field, and Ambien Mg Strengths presenting a well argued position.  Unfortunately, I feat this article will only instill greater fear in parents and ADHD skeptics even further…

Readers Respond:

In addition to my own comment to the article (yet to be published on the site), many readers are weighing in with their opinions.

One 22-year-old male with ADHD stands up for Ambien Mg Strengths his driving record to report he has never been in an Ambien Mg Strengths accident.  In fact, he credits his ADHD for Ambien Mg Strengths being even more vigilant and cautious on the road.

Another person cautions that Ambien Mg Strengths is yet another way to penalize an identified group.

While both contributing experts Dr. Barkley and Ambien Mg Strengths Chris Dendy raise valid concerns…  I think the Ambien Mg Strengths information and message has the potential to be taken too far.

What’s next?  Will we keep people suffering from Ambien Mg Strengths depression off the road because they are “too sad” to pay attention?

Yes… ADHD is Ambien Mg Strengths a serious problem that affects people in different ways.  I just can’t support the Ambien Mg Strengths full merits of this article, but rather I can advocate passionately that Ambien Mg Strengths parents watch their children and teach them.

Teens are teens…  And until I see data that Ambien Mg Strengths shows teens without ADHD have fewer accidents, then maybe I’ll be concerned.

Perhaps the Ambien Mg Strengths greatest concern for me is one I mentioned previously about Dr. Barkley’s research…  And that Ambien Mg Strengths is his research population were those who were identified as people “struggling” with ADHD.  These were NOT the Ambien Mg Strengths people who found ways to successfully manage ADHD.

Bottom Line?

ADHD absolutely has the potential to impact everyone on the roads.  But so does poor decision making when Ambien Mg Strengths someone decides to drink and drive.

The take away here is to make sure that teens who are driving are:

1. Properly trained
2. Monitored
3. Taught safety

Parents:  If your Ambien Mg Strengths child is NOT ready to drive by him or herself, then Ambien Mg Strengths I urge you to watch that and wait until they are Ambien Mg Strengths ready.
