The risk-benefit calculation for any drug assumes a correct diagnosis of the disorder. Many investigators and clinicians feel the current epidemic of child psychiatric disorders is largely due to inappropriate diagnosis. Evaluate the risk and benefits of using psychoactive drugs in children correctly diagnosed with a disorder versus those incorrectly diagnosed with a disorder. Consider the risks and benefits of not treating (drug treatment) a child because he or she is not correctly diagnosed with a disorder. In your evaluation summarize the natural course of the disorder, the drug action on the neurotransmitter systems in question, and the likelihood of short-term, long-term, and permanent positive and negative effects of drug treatment. Make sure to take into account the ethical dimension of this risk-benefit calculation.

- It is often easier to see manifestations of women’s oppression in cultures other than our own, since they don’t seem “natural” to us. However, as we have seen in class, for every issue we have located in “other cultures” we can find an analogous manifestation in the culture(s) of the United States that reveals a shared rootedness in patriarchal society. Offer and explain U.S. analogues to three of the following: stark division of gender roles, son preference, child marriage, and control of women’s sexuality.
-Discuss the origins of human rights discourse and the extent to which it has been applied (or not) to women’s issues we have discussed in class. Provide examples of how women’s lives (stories, issues, voices, ideas) continue to be "silenced" around the world.
- Family has been described as a “mythical haven.” Even though many of us find love and support among and within our families, statistically, it can be a dangerous place for women around the globe and in the U.S. How exactly is it “dangerous” in the context of women’s human rights? Why is it difficult to make motherhood, marriage and family “safe spaces” for women?
