for examples of egregious grammar and sentence structure and myths and lies, including the infamous and disproven “chemical imbalance” theory of bipolar disorder. 

What were and are they thinking? Saying that your child having a psychiatric diagnosis is the equivalent of your child being kidnapped?! Yeah, that’s going to make people want to lessen the social distance between themselves and families of and children with psychiatric diagnoses.

They have a link for comments on the first link, I suggest you use it to civilly tell them what you think of their efforts on their own behalf.  (Because there is no way these efforts are on behalf of children or families with psychiatric labels no matter what they say.)
