YOUNG MINDS Number of children facing mental
health crisis soars 53% in 4 years − 16 signs your
child is at risk
Some 32,521 under-18s were referred for emergency
care at mental health services in 2022 to 2023, up from
21,242 in 2019 to 2020.
Doctors at the Royal College of Psychiatrists said the
shocking numbers "cannot become the new norm".
The college said many of these under-18s have suffered
worsening mental health while on NHS waiting lists for
treatment.
Dr Elaine Lockhart, chair of the college's child and
adolescent faculty, said: "It's unacceptable that so many
children and young people are reaching crisis point
before they are able to access care.
"Severe mental illness is not just an adult problem. The
need for specialist mental health services for children and
young people is growing all the time.
"The evidence shows us that children who receive
support quickly are less likely to develop long-term
conditions, that negatively affect their education, social
development and health in later life.
"Government and integrated care boards must commit to
reducing the rate of mental illness among children by
setting an achievable target.
"This needs to be backed by an expansion of the mental
health workforce and additional funding for services.
"Investing in children's mental health will ultimately free
up NHS time and resources, while ensuring the country
has a healthy and productive population in the years to
come."
The college said around half of mental health conditions
arise before the age of 14 and three-quarters before the
age of 24.
Data shows under-18s who are waiting for follow-up after
a GP referral for mental health problems have already
waited on average five months and, in the worst case,
almost two years.
The Royal College of Psychiatrists said last year's
Government announcement of an extra £5million to
improve access to existing early support hubs was
welcome.
But it said it predicts an extra £125 to £205million is
needed to establish hubs in every local authority, with
running costs of at least £114m per year.
It comes as the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child
Health (RCPCH) published a statement outlining the
"changing role" for paediatricians in being involved in
identifying and helping children with poor mental health.
RCPCH officer for mental health Dr Karen Street said:
"The entire children's workforce has a role to play in
tackling the current crisis in children's mental health but
as paediatricians we are particularly well placed to make
a difference.
"Research shows paediatricians are the most trusted
profession for secondary school children, across all
ethnicities and backgrounds and that children see
doctors as a key group to support their mental health.
"We know that paediatric settings and emergency
departments are not ideal for children and young people
experiencing a crisis in their mental health, but they
cannot be left without support.
"If we are ever to get out of this dire situation then we
need meaningful support for health services and staff, as
well as child focused polices that can improve the
physical, emotional, social and educational wellbeing of
young people.
"The responsibility to tackle this growing mental health
emergency cannot be left to healthcare professionals
alone."
Liberal Democrat health and social care spokesperson
Daisy Cooper said: "This devastating explosion of mental
ill health among children should be a wake-up call for the
government.
"Conservative ministers have neglected children's mental
health during and after the pandemic, leaving mental
health services and families in crisis.
"We have seen a litany of broken promises from this
government including the failure to deliver maximum
waiting times for children, ending out of area placements
or reforming the Mental Health Act."

last year's Government announcement of an extra
£5million to improve access to existing early support
hubs was welcome," what does the word "welcome" most
likely mean?

Carmen Miranda
When Carmen Miranda performed, audiences remarked
on her vivacity and sparkle. Her voice and stage
presence captivated people and made her a favorite star,
first in Brazil, and later in the United States. Miranda was
born in 1909 in northern Portugal, but her family
immigrated to Brazil when she was very young. She
began her career as a singer for Brazilian radio stations,
but she very quickly leapt to stardom, and began acting
in movies as well. Her fame and talent caught the
attention of a Broadway theater owner and producer, Lee
Shubert. He convinced her to join his 1939 production of
The Streets of Paris and, with the support of the Brazilian
government, Miranda and her band went to New York
City as goodwill ambassadors to the United States.
Carmen Miranda was highly successful in the United
States, and in addition to major theater appearances, she
acted in movies and sang in nightclubs. At the peak of
her Hollywood career, she was the highest paid female
performer in the United States. However, her success
came with drawbacks. Her first major role in a Hollywood
film was as an exotic, volatile stereotype of a Latina, and
thereafter she was typically typecast in such roles. Her
parts often genericized Latin American cultures and
played to stereotypes. This was very well received by
American audiences, and fed the interests of the United
States' Good Neighbor policy in the 1940s, but it angered
critics in South and Central America. On a return trip
home to Brazil in 1940, she was poorly received, and was
actually booed off a stage at a charity event she
arranged, a drastic change from the adoration she was
given before her departure for America. She did not
return to Brazil until shortly before she died in 1955.
Miranda's greatest legacy, perhaps, is the popularization
of the samba. The samba was created by Afro-Latin
American musicians with roots in the Carnival
celebrations that blended European Catholic traditions
with African ones. It was created and originally played in
poorer Afro-Latin communities but was increasingly
picked up by middle class performers. Miranda was
sometimes criticized by whites for performing a form of
music they considered vulgar because of its origins, while
Afro-Latin Americans have criticized her for appropriating
their musical traditions without regard for their culture.
Nonetheless, her talent was considerable, and her fame
brought samba into the spotlight with her. Miranda
popularized the samba first in Brazil on the radio and in
films, and later in the United States with her
performances there, and the samba has had
considerable influences on a wide range of musicians
and musical forms since.

The Amazon rainforest, often referred to as the “lungs of the Earth,” plays a crucial role in regulating
the planet’s climate. Covering approximately 5.5 million square kilometers, it is home to an incredible
diversity of flora and fauna. The forest produces about 20% of the world’s oxygen and absorbs vast
amounts of carbon dioxide, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. However, deforestation
poses a significant threat to this vital ecosystem. Efforts to protect and restore the Amazon are essential
for maintaining global ecological balance.
