Is mental illness a social construct or biological fact

If one were to really dig into the background of those that are suppose to have a mental illness I would almost bet you that more than 85% of those who are being treated for mental illnesses have come from situations that would most definately make anyone mentally ill.. . . . called dysfunctionalism.

Parents today depend too much on schools,TV,computers,

out of the home activities and places and in some instances,other people to teach their children to live in society and therefore they grow up sadly lacking coping skills/living skills and behavior skills.

Though mental illness is more widely recognized and accepted than it was 50yrs ago,I think if the research were to go deeper I think that it would be proven that today there are more mentally ill people today than 50yrs ago and I believe that to be because of the "need" to have a "label" for one anothers behavior.

I find that people today LIKE being able to find an excuse for unacceptable behavior therefore when nothing else can be found to be physically wrong for them,it is just labeled "mental illness" when in reality "US" as a society are becoming lazy and more acceptable of unacceptable behavior if the person doing unacceptable behavior has been "diagnosed" mentally ill.

I am a very strong believer that "spare the rod and spoil the child" and thought I'm not a child abuser,I have found a destinct connection from the bottom of a child who is projecting unacceptable behavior to their brain.
