Mental Heath Issues in Education

Mental Health Issues has been a big problem in the world. It is even more difficult for those students who are in the school environment trying to receive an education. It has become more of a problem compared to those other problems.

 In 2008-2009, 7.7% of US children younger than 18 years had a disability that limited usual activity, which is a 4-fold increase in the prevalence of childhood activity limitations since 1960, according to data from the National Health Interview Survey from the US Department of Health and Human Services. 

There isn't a saying for " there is only so much we can do" in this situation. We have to find more solution and be more attentive about this problem. We can not disregard it and hope for the best that it will get better over time.

 Although mental disabilities constitute a larger share of children's chronic conditions, services to treat them have lagged...Only about half of these children get any kind of services, said Halfon. “Parents typically recognize learning disabilities in their children between the ages of 3½ and 4½, but the children don't get enrolled in special education classes at school until they are about 8½, when problems become too difficult to ignore,” he said.
