In which generation of drugs does fluoxetine (Prozac) belong?

Your father is an avid soccer fan and was hoping that his granddaughter would grow up to be a gifted soccer player. She is still not making much progress in learning to walk, and she is 14 months old. What would you tell your father?

He should probably give up on the notion that she will ever play soccer. Not to worry, children do not start walking until they are 18 months old.
