This little flick looks at the prevalence rates of childhood pill popping in relation to kids' inability to conform in school. Our society likes to create unnatural settings in which to "educate" children, and then sedate the same children they are "teaching" when those children don't conform to the rather restrictive standards in these unnatural environments. Maybe insead of trying to medicate our children to "work" with the current system of education, maybe the educational institution and our paradigm on education itself is what needs to change. The purpose of education and it's institutions is to serve humanity, not to force humanity to change itself in order to conform to the institution.
