Are we medicating a generation of boys simply for being boys? In this eye-opening episode, Lori and Laura tackle the rising trend of ADHD diagnoses and hyperactivity medications—especially among young boys. With staggering stats showing 9 boys medicated for every 1 girl, they ask: is the problem really the child, or the environment?

They explore the long-term effects of medication, the power of nature to regulate cortisol, and how our tech-saturated, screen-heavy culture is harming kids’ development. Whether your child is already on medication or you’re questioning what’s best, this episode encourages parents to pause, research, and advocate. It's time to reclaim childhood—and raise our kids with intention, not prescriptions.
