Description
What on earth is going on with our children?And what is going on with us humans?In this book Verena Karl und Eddy Sadzakov address a phenomenon that is shaping present-day society in profound ways. Ever more children are deemed behaviorally challenged. More and more often they are given psychosocial diagnoses. Youth and family service agencies report rising numbers of overburdened parents. People are, seemingly, deviating from the social norm; they are classified as impaired, sick, or even mentally disabled. Pediatricians' offices note skyrocketing cases of autism, ADHD, and children and youth with developmental disabilities. But what are the families to do with these diagnoses, and how do the diagnoses affect the families? What are the possible causes?Are children and families receiving adequate support?Is all of this "normal"?The suffering and despair that many families experience has become unbearable. Something has to change. Yet, it is not the individuals who should change; rather, the ways in which society relates to this phenomenon need to be rethought. The explanatory models and ways of understanding need to be examined with fresh eyes. In this book the authors describe their search for explanations and solutions. A metaphor - that of wolves and bears - became their answer. They vividly illustrate why it is often so hard to find solutions to the challenges in our lives. This natural metaphor builds courage and empowers us to develop a different perspective. It paves the way toward reconciling with ourselves, our families, and our fellow human beings, engendering an enormous sense of relief. Join us on a journey with wolves and bears ...
