Many of the improvements noted here could be attributed to normal child development, unless the same improvements were not observed in a control group. Also, were the participants blind to the study? I can imagine many parents acting different toward their children because of the the placebo belief that fish oil would work, which of course would have dramatic improvements on parent-child relationships. I want to give my child fish oil, but would love to have more details of the original study (is it cited anywhere in this article?). Compared to what?

I have noticed that his behavior has gotten worse than it was. Has anyone heard of it having the reverse effect on children?
