Charlie is an 8-year-old boy who is having difficulty making friends
and sitting still in class. When he goes to school, his teacher
complains that he cant sit still. He will sit for 3 minutes but soon
after he starts bouncing his leg, and then he begins tapping his pencil.
Shortly thereafter, he starts rapping lyrics under his breath. He is
performing well in school, but his behavior is distracting others.
Charlie isnt hyperactive like this at home, but his mother is
concerned. His mother wants you to prescribe him Xanax for anxiety and
Adderall for ADHD. After you do an extensive interview with Charlie, you
realize that he is just bored in his U.S History class and would rather
be playing basketball in P.E.
However, Charlies mother insists that you write a few prescriptions.
Research suggests that medical professionals (Doctors, Nurse
Practitioners, Physician Assistants, etc.) are often pressured to write
prescriptions even when they dont believe that it is the best thing to
do for the patient.
Your investigation has led you to believe that Charlie just needs
more physical exercise. But his mother continues to insist that Charlie
needs medication. How would you explain to his mother what you plan to
do?
Use your investigation skills and present your facts to her. Be sure
