Have America’s Classrooms Become Profit Centers for Mental Health Industry? Abigail Shrier Explains
Description
By nearly every measure, our children's mental health is worse than that of previous generations. Investigative journalist Abigail Shrier is the author of Bad Therapy: Why the Kids Aren't Growing Up.
Abigail and PragerU CEO Marissa Streit discuss how the mental health industry has put an entire generation of young people in distress by convincing them they have unresolved emotional trauma and need therapy and medication. She explains what parents should be aware of when they send their kids to school—or even the pediatrician.
