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.

Loss of Brain Trust features over 9,000 news stories published worldwide since January, 2017

Meanwhile, the government and the medical profession sleep on regardless.

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.

When it comes to autism, early intervention is key.

But on average, it can take more than a year for a parent to get their child diagnosed, further delaying treatment.

What takes usually more than a year, can now take less than two months thanks to the new healthcare company expanding into Tucson that drastically cuts wait time for autism evaluations.

Axis for Autism offers diagnostic services and applied behavioral analysis therapy and is expanding its presence in Arizona, with opening a new clinic in Tucson and held a big ribbon cutting ceremony on Wednesday.

They specialize in ABA therapy to help improve communication and social skills….
