Kids and Effects of Normalizing Behavior

What happens when our children's less than healthy behavior is normalized in our school systems. What is the impact on that child's ability to problem solve, develop their potential or gain independence as a young adult? What about their community? How can we gauge what health is when our society has it so messed up? Our kids are programmed to be confused as to their gender, that drugs are required to sit still in class and that health comes from the doctor. "Furries" are now an acceptable personification (or is it animalification) in the classroom? How do parents regain control in their child's mental and physical health in a school system that is wrought with contradiction and politically left extremism? I'm always talking with other colleagues and professionals as to the challenges we face in our practices and patterns we see. Dr. Lou DePalma and I had a heart to heart chat one day that helped us both realize the depth of our current problem with our educational system, "sick care" system and the simple question of what actually IS health? We didn't agree on everything and that's a good thing. We see the world similarly and yet with differing perspectives. We can dialogue, not have all the answers and still be great friends with the utmost respect for each other. This candid discussion is authentic in our responses and perspectives to societies over-accommodation to political correctness. Ill health "made normal" is not the answer. My wish is not that you agree with us, but that you can resonate with our concern, our inner struggle to honor every person's choice while holding space for human potential.
