I distorted NOTHING. You said that pain isn't too bad, we are afraid of pain, and taking pills for it is a failing. Incidentally, I said nothing about parents and children -- that distortion was entirely from you. Your blather about not medicating children shows, among other things, that you want your children to be in pain. You praise working with your family, but it seems that you really don't care about the wellbeing of your kids. Oh, and ADHD is something real. A genuine parent would know that.

I was wounded by a claymore mine set off by a Vietnamese. If you had bothered looking at that article, you would see that the Chinese made knock-offs of the American claymore mine. And you got an ouchie in Fallujah. I got shot once with a rifle round that grazed the top of my head (and bled like the proverbial stuck pig), and I got a dozen or so claymore pellets in my left leg. I'm lucky I can still walk.
