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

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.

(UK) Lincolnshire: Vocational training center to become special school

Aug 24, 2020, Lincolnshire Live: Vocational training centre in Lincolnshire to become independent school for special needs students https://www.lincolnshirelive.co.uk/news/local-news/bridge-house-independent-school-boston-4452232 East central coast of England A vocational training centre says it was left with no other choice but to convert into an independent school in order to help its students. Bridge House, in Grantham Road, Boston, was given permission to turn into a vocational training centre for children with special educational needs in 2007. Since then it has been used as a place to educate 14-16 year olds with emotional and behavioural problems. As part of this, the centre would take in between 36 and 40 pupils and attempt to teach them how to integrate back into mainstream education, with the hope being they could go one to thrive in traditional living and work environments….
