Generation after generation, and then they grow up and there are no adults in the room.

It is time for Marianne Williamson’s proposal for a U.S. Dept. of Children and Youth. No child should be left behind....

William Steele, MI. wrote a curriculum that could so easily be utilized. I think all students should have a trauma pres.; then, from that determine which students need group. And, I believe Florence Ernzen and I wrote that a secondary cur for group. Activity based. In the moment.

I stumbled on this when I first became a mom years ago. What could possibly be preventing the US from ratifying this?!

There is an old architectural expression ... "God is in the details" ... the resistance to this convention ... I'm sure ... is in the details ...

This is so blatantly true! We can’t afford to let others continue to turn a blind eye to this intentional form of child abuse and neglect. I am an emotional support teacher who attempts to teach these children and we don’t have everything we need to support and help these youth!

Isn't traumatizing children America's favorite pastime and leading industry?

The lack of ratification of the UN Convention in the Rights of the Child is a stain on America. Trauma is real and affects so many children. Clinton, Bush, Obama and now Trump have failed to submit it to the Senate for ratification. Kinda says alot, doesn't it?
