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.

What will happen in another 4 years? How can we go on like this? This is a national (and international) problem of monumental proportions. We have an entire new class of children who cannot be accommodated by the system: many are manifestly neurologically impaired. Meanwhile, the government and the medical profession sleep on regardless.

The generation of American children born after 1990 are arguably the sickest generation in the history of our country.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

It seemed to me that with rising autism prevalence, you’d also see rising autism costs to society, and it turns out, the costs are catastrophic.
They calculated that in 2015 autism cost the United States $268 billion and they projected that if autism continues at its current rate, we’re looking at one trillion dollars a year in autism costs by 2025, so within five years.

July 22, 2025, WSBT, South Bend: Autism care center opens in Mishawaka

There’s a new care center in Mishawaka aimed at helping children with autism and their families.

A ribbon cutting was held for the facility on McKinley Avenue by UNIFI Autism Care.

This is designed to help treat children ranging from as early as 18 months to 18 years old.

And they provide treatment options along with diagnostic services as well.

"So certainly there are some locations in the South Bend area, but Mishawaka in particular was looking to be an underserved area that Unifi really has felt confident and really good about bringing some services to the area that otherwise wouldn't have existed," said Dr. Breanne Hartley, UNIFI Autism Care President and Chief Clinical Officer.

This is their second location in Indiana. The first is in Evansville.
