excerpt from today's blog - very interesting.........

_The Washington Post_

(http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/15/AR2006061501984\

..html) is reporting today that " a growing number of

U.S. schools are screening teenagers for suicidal tendencies or signs of

mental illness. " Proponents of these screenings say that they could help to

reduce the more than 1,700 suicides committed by adolescents each year. One

such

screening, _TeenScreen_ (http://www.teenscreen.org/) , which was developed by

Columbia University, has already been administered to more than 150,000

children across the country.

You might be interested to read Pringle's article on TEEN SCREEN

- about the cover-ups of the adverse effects of anti-depressants.

I urge you, and everyone, to take a look at this well-researched and

superbly written account of the insidious " TEEN SCREEN " marketing ploy

(that is really an unconstitutional and criminal takeover of government).

Pringle reveals the very real and present dangers of pharmaceuticals

in children, particularly for " mental illness " , and how knowledge of those

dangers (of suicide, homicide, other violence, and loss of control) have

been criminally suppressed by the pharmaceutical companies.

The article is written and researched - and is very enlightening.
