America's Medicated Kids is an expository British documentary that was presented by Louis Theroux. This documentary lasts for 60 minutes. Theroux travels to one of America's leading children's psychiatric treatment centers, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to find out how is to having to put children with obsessive compulsive disorders on prescription medication and how does the medication help the children’s life.

Louis was lucky enough that one family invited him to live with them so he could find out more about medication on the children. To find out the effects of the medications and how does it help the children to improve their life. Louis and his crews cannot scare the family by showing of like they are making a big deal of it, they have to do their best to be part of the family to get the family to act like their dairy normal life and not some fake acts just for the camera but one of them victims doesn.t care about it.To get to know more about the family’s life Louis had to interact with them like: talking to them, eating and many things.While Louis was living with the family, he ate and slept just like a family member, for the interviews he didn’t make a big deal of with (such as setting up the backgrounds, the lightings and etc…)Instead of that the interviews was just a normal conversation with the parents so it’s just like a normal conversation between family members about how life is going on but the questions are more about the child that is having medication.Louis also had conversations (interviews) with the victims (kid on drugs). He doesn’t go straight to the topic first he starts just a normal chat then he gets into the topic because that will get the kids more talkative and not afraid of talking about it.

Louis was not just observing the family he was living with, he also went to visit others family that the child has issues. Louis know that the children he is seeing now is not their real self, so he tries to do something to see how the children real behaves like.He bought a game and went to one of the victim’s house to test it to find out how the victim real behaves. The victim that he is testing has angry issues; whenever the victim loses he goes berserk and starts hiding under the table then starts shouting or flipping the table. Louis has to let the victim win and loose to find out the difference when the victim is winning and losing, in the beginning he purposely let the victim win, when the victim is winning he is full of joy and happy as hell but then Louis starts winning the victim’s reaction starts changing to the negative side, first the victim just getting depress and look like he is about to cry, when the victim loses the game he starts shouting then he starts hitting the sofa with his head.

In the end of the documentary Louis had a one on one interview with a victim. As the interviewee was a child, Louis did a child play with him, he let the victim to be the director and directed the show.In that interview Louis asked him about how victims sees himself, how he sees others and how he sees the world.
