    New here - What is doing the Riley?

    After reading through the discussions here about how diet and particularly artificial dyes can have on some children's behavior I removed all traces of the dye from my sons diet, and although he definitely still has trouble, the change is amazing.

    Hi. I'm new to all of this. After going through hell this last year and not knowing why my 12 year old son has degraded so bad, my husband and I reached the ends of our ropes this weekend after I found out that my son had stolen all of my old coin collection that my mother had been saving for me...
