Remember, folks: with the rise of child psychologists we've seen the rise of medicated children, child anxiety, self harm, and suicide.

Heck, many kids these days don't even know if they're a boy or girl.

Thank your local child psychologist, next time you seem him.

Remember, folks: now we can recognize, treat and deal with all sorts of things for which primitives like Christine Wright would've just prescribed a savage beating; meaning more kids grow into happy, healthy adults instead of offing themselves and maybe their tormentors.

Don't demonize mental health professionals. These people have a thankless job and deserve respect.

Read a fucking history book. You'll find the rates are lower. And meds help.

“Remember, folks:”
No one ever posts the obvious after this, it’s always spin.
I mean, search the blogs, does anyone post ‘Remember, folks, the sun rises in the east’ or ‘rightie-tightie, leftie-loosie.’?

“with the rise of child psychologists we've seen the rise of medicated children, child anxiety, self harm, and suicide.”
You know that the whole family used to get stigmatized when someone committed suicide, right? More than a few suicides were covered up by the coroner so as not to bring shame on the rest of the family.
Same with a botched abortion, actually.
And teen pregnancies. The daughter, maybe others, went to visit ‘family’ for a few months, then came back with a new ‘sister.’

If the numbers went up, you can’t be sure if it’s the numbers that changed, or just our knowledge of the facts.

$cientologist much, Christie Wrong…?!

My mother being a classic case of “when my child was diagnosed with ADHD, a lot of my own strange problems throughout my life started to make sense…”, sod off!

It’s possible that there is more child anxiety, depression, etc, because more children are surviving in general. Remember, folks, if your child dies of polio or diphtheria or measles, they aren’t going to need meds for depression or anxiety!

As for the rest, like others have said, we actually talk about these things nowadays and deal with them instead of telling the kid to shut up or “I’ll give you something to cry about!!”

I was only diagnosed with ASD at age 16, rather late for most people. Yet me and my parents were relieved that we finally had a name for my neurodivergent behavior and could thus adjust our lives accordingly.

In other words, go die in a fire.

Or it could be because, befor, there weren’t considered as medical issues. Autism appeared as a diagnostic recently enough that the first child to have been diagnosed by Kanner is still alive.

I used to see a child psychologist….

That damn kid couldn’t help me at all!
