Hi there ,
if you knew for a fact that someone you knew was using their child's riddalin tablets to get high themselves would you do them in ? And how /who would I tell? To me this is very wrong and i really feel for the child involved. Parents are drug addicts .
Misuse of ritalin tablets to do or not to dob?

I'd dob them in to child protective services in your state for 2 reasons
1. The parents are addicts so are most likely endangering the child
2. The child is going without a medication they have been prescribed. Ritalin is tightly controlled in australia, it's really difficult to use too much without a pharmacist noticing so it means the child is not getting his medication. Or it means they are using there child to get fake diagnosis so they can get prescriptions.
Either way the child is in danger in many ways and the situation needs to be monitored.
