  1. I would also put a child with epilepsy on a ketogenic diet and if the pediatrician doesn’t like it, find another doctor preferably a Naturopath or a holistic nutritionist.

  2. “Conservative” nurse. There’s the problem.

    Don’t blame the school or the nurse. Given the nature of the drug laws in the US, administering cannibis or hemp oil to a minor is a HUGE legal risk, even if you’re the child’s parent, much less a medical professional or a public school.

      The thing is, though, that hemp is NOT a hallucinogenic drug. People really should educate themselves before banishing helpful plant medicines from their environment.

        I’m not debating whether either should be illegal or not (I suspect we agree on that point), but given the current situation the school’s response is completely understable.

          Yes, unfortunately, the “current situation” is that the majority of the people in this country are brain dead and brainwashed, and they therefore willingly toe the line.

    Yeah, but for some reason they have no trouble handing out harmful and addictive pharma drugs like candy at school…

    If she was my daughter I’d move to Washington or Colorado.

    Isn’t this akin to the lady in Kentucky appropriating personal beliefs over others in a public position? As a nurse, I can say she is out of line. If it is medically prescribed, it is not her place to withhold effective therapy. She needs to do her research or find another position where her personal beliefs do not cost a patient valuable treatment.
