Childhood Lost

Children today are noticeably different from previous generations, and the proof is in the news coverage we see every day. This site shows you what’s happening in schools around the world.

Children are increasingly disabled and chronically ill, and the education system has to accommodate them. Things we've long associated with autism, like sensory issues, repetitive behaviors, anxiety and lack of social skills, are now problems affecting mainstream students.

Blame is predictably placed on bad parenting (otherwise known as trauma from home).

Addressing mental health needs is as important as academics for modern educators. This is an unrecognized disaster. The stories here are about children who can’t learn or behave like children have always been expected to. What childhood has become is a chilling portent for the future of mankind.

Mark Dayton wants lawmakers to grant $21 million to schools in Minnesota to improve school safety infrastructure and add more mental health services. ... "We have a big task to try to identify people before they commit these horrible crimes and get them the help they need," Dayton said. The governor's Safe and Secure Schools Act would use general fund money to give about $15.9 million to school districts for safety feature upgrades. Districts would receive $18 per pupil for the upgrades; each district would receive at least $22,000 under the formula, according to state officials. That money could be used for more infrastructure, counselors or resource officers, among other things. Districts could apply for grants out of a $5 million appropriation to add more mental health counselors or find other ways to improve student access to mental health care. …
