>to drug their child....... or drug their parents >....death, addiction and life-ruining conditions...
What I'm saying, in essence, is that new posters may feel frightened by such exceptionally emotive language. It may cause distress. I don't believe this is your intention, but I do think it may occur. When a poster has concerns, such concerns can be validated in a manner less likely to cause further anxiety.
Instead of talking about 'drugging children', you could ask: have you considered the possibility of serious side effects with this medication?
Instead of talking about 'life-ruining conditions', it might be more helpful to mention a few of the more common, but major, side effects which the drug might cause.
I do believe it's possible to be informative with less risk of inducing panic! I also believe it would benefit you... I think new members would be a lot more likely to engage with you if your posts were written in a less emotive manner.
