If you are a parent, have you ever stopped to think about all the issues that face our children today? When you were a child how many kids in your classroom were considered obese? How often did you hear of autism when you were growing up? Chances what is today's new normal are issues that were of minimal concern for you when you were growing up. In today's world, we are so used to hearing terms, such as autism, childhood obesity and ADHD, that we really don't even think twice when our child, or the child of friend or family member, has been diagnosed with one of these new norms. We have come to accept these illnesses and conditions as normals and our settling. When in fact, these new childhood norms are not okay. They are not acceptable.
