Recent reports say 1 in 10 children in the uk have a mental health disorder - Up 100% on 70 years ago!?

I have two children in my family with a mental health diorders,the reason the problem appears to have risen is due to the fact that we ourselfves are more educated and more in tune with the development of children, Its probably much the same its just that with research and observation on child development over the years the problems have been recognised as real disorders and not simply a difficult child.. and thank goodness for that because there is real help out there now where there wasnt before.. children with these problems are recieving the support they need in order for them to cope in our society, a society which is difficult enough for a "normal " child to cope in xx
