See Miami Herald article.
My personal opinion is that it should be deemed a criminal offence to prescribe psychotropic drugs to minors. Children in care or in foster care especially need love and attention, not pharmaceutical junk. Their existing emotional trauma should not be compounded by mind-altering drugs. Instead of a blind eye being turned on contraventions of the regulations/statutes, the people who are responsible for the children being prescribed these drugs should be struck off the medical register and should go for trial to a criminal court.

When the state is an uncaring, unloving parent, some children are further harmed with prescribed psychoactive junk that can drive them to suicide.
