]]> Nothing more infuriates me then hearing someone harming a child or putting a child at risk for health problems. A child less then 15 years old can’t speak or defend for themselves when it comes to medical decisions by their parents. A friend of mine, Jane Alexander, explained on her Youtube videos about how you can get out of a psychiatric hospital in a legal and rational fashion. She explains the habeas corpus act, an act where you can legally request court intervention appeal and have your time in court to prove to yourself that you’re not insane and that you don’t belong in the psychiatric hospital to the judge.

Obviously you can’t go in there cursing like a sailer and demanding to get released because it will not happen.

I was reading an article that I’m about to show to you below. This Psychiatrist named Thomas M. Peterson was accused of improperly prescribing medication to his 2 children patients. The medications that he was improperly prescribing were anti-psychotics. Go to my The Dangers of taking antipsychotics article to find out how dangerous Anti-Psychotics are. I can only speculate that the Anti-Psychotics that Tomas M. Peterson was giving these children were the prescription medication Risperdal, a now approved medication by the FDA to give to children.

He had his medical license taken away and now the state board of medical examiners are reinstating his medical license for some obvious reason.

Bismarck, N. D. (AP) The state Board of Medical Examiners has reinstated the medical license of a Grand Forks psychiatrist accused of improperly prescribing medication to children.

Thomas M. Peterson’s license was reinstated on Wednesday. The board had restricted his license last month after he improperly prescribed anti-psychotic medication to two children.

The board says Peterson has since completed a course at Harvard on child and adolescent pharmacology. His license will remain on probation for three years.

The medical board also placed Lois Freisleben-Cook on probation for three years for improperly prescribing medication. The board ordered the Williston doctor to complete courses in pharmacology, ethics and record-keeping.
