CHILDHOOD IN CRISIS

Why are so many children struggling today – and why does no one seem to have a clear answer?

In this Care Visions Family Talk: Spotlight episode, host Lucy Johnston speaks to world-renowned trauma expert and bestselling author Dr Gabor Maté about the rising levels of anxiety, depression, ADHD, eating disorders and emotional distress in children.

As diagnoses increase and waiting lists grow, this conversation asks a deeper question:
What if we’ve misunderstood childhood completely?
Dr Maté challenges the idea that conditions like ADHD are primarily genetic, and instead explores how stress, environment and modern life are shaping children’s brains and behaviour. From early development and attachment to school systems, smartphones and family pressure, this episode looks at what’s really driving the crisis in childhood mental health.
This is not an easy listen – but it is an essential one.
