According to a study shared on MSNBC, the consumption of pesticides by children have been linked to possible Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms. The National Academy of Sciences shared that many common foods and snacks that children eat on a daily basis, including frozen blueberries, fresh strawberries and celery are coated with chemicals and this has been found to be a major source of pesticide exposure in children which leads to ADHD.

A team of scientists from the University of Montreal and Harvard University has discovered that exposure to organophosphate pesticides may be associated with increased risk of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children.
The pesticide is found on many summer fruits and vegetables so popular this time of year.
Publishing their results in the journal Pediatrics, the researchers focused on pesticide levels in the urine of 1,139 children from the general population and measured. Levels common among U.S. children were linked to ADHD.
ADHD affects a significant number of children, as many as three to eight percent of children. ADHD seems to run in families with lead exposure and alcohol abuse in utero considered as possible environmental causes.
Previous studies had confirmed that these pesticides caused hyperactivity and cognitive deficits in animals.

1-Year-Old Foster Baby Demands to Not Go With Foster Mother
1-Year-Old Foster Baby Demands to Not Go With Foster Mother
Look at the bruises on my daughter. Listen to her say, “NO! NOT ANA!” and try to get out of the carrier to stay with me. The DCFS worker refused to have a doctor look at my daughter’s arm, assumed it was an “Accident” when it looks non-accidental with no investigation. My daughter was severely injured and was babying her arm until it was time to go. She did everything she could to stay with me. Also, listen…The DCFS worker wanted to know if the camera was off BEFORE she told me she wasn’t going to let my injured daughter see a doctor. She said it was a “Small bruise” and that her nurse could look at it. The nurse never looked at it and my daughter never saw the doctor about that mark…This was typical. I saw stripes on my child constantly, slap/smack marks: all hidden by DCFS.

A Wish for All Grandparent's on Grandparent's Day 9/12/2010
This is a picture of Isabella and Grammie on 10/03/05. I should look happy, but knowing DCYF is on the way to steal her, all I have is sadness.
This is a picture of Austin and Grampie on one of the last visit's we had with him. Can you see the bond?
This is a picture of Austin and his sister Ally. Their last Christmas together at Grammie and Grampies house in 2005.
Wishing all grandparent's throughout our Nation a Happy Grandparent's Day. For the most fortunate of grandparent's who are able to see and spend time with their grandchildren today, please cherish every moment you can with the most precious of all God's creation's. Your grandchildren are truly special and I'm sure they feel the same way about you. A grandparent and grandchild's bond can never be broken, no matter the circumstance. Don't ever let your grandchildren forget you are there for them and alway's will be. Never forget to show them how precious they are. Give them a big hug and alway's show them how much you love and care about them. You are extremely blessed to be able to spend time with them. Thank God every day for these precious little beings. You don't know how lucky you are.
Some grandparent's aren't as fortunate and won't be seeing their grandchildren on grandparent's day. Some of these less fortunate grandparent's won't even be able to speak to their grandchildren today. Some of them don't even know where their grandchildren are, due to separation by Parental Alienation or child protective services and the judicial system, along with other different circumstances. The only thing these unfortunate grandparent's will be able to do is look at old pictures of their grandchildren and pray that they are being taken care of and remember all the good times they spent together, along with the love and happiness they shared. Hoping one day they'll re-unite, before it's too late. Hoping their grandchildren remember how much their grandparent's love them and how hard their grandparent's fought for their return.
So to all the Grandparent's out there, hug your grandchild today and let them know how special they are. Let them know they mean the world to you. Don't put it off. It may end up being too late.
To our special grandchildren; Austin, Ally and Isabella; We love you and miss you. You mean the world to us. We cherish every moment we spent with you and will never forget all the happiness we shared as a once happy family. We will alway's be here for you, no matter how long it takes. Please don't forget us. Somehow, I don't believe you will.
Love alway's Grammie and Grampie
