My dad once told me about a discussion he had with a psychiatrist. He asked the doctor why you always hear these days how kids go to therapy for this and that. Back when he was a child, this was not done. The doctor explained that when my dad was a child, the family was a tight unit of father and mother, a whole family. In this day and age, the unity has been broken. Kids no longer grow up with both parents; they no longer sit around the dinner table together as a family. For some children, this has lead to problems. What are parents doing today to keep their children mentally healthy?
