So you seem to feel that the fact that Therapists do not have veto power over a Rebbi’s curriculum is a problem.
You seem to admit that the problems now-a-days have gotten worse.
You also admit that in schools nowadays there are trained therapists to assist or take care of children with issues. This was not the case 15 years ago. It is the case now. So the school structure has changed, and those responsible for certain parts of chinuch have changed.
TLIK – This logic is comical. Trained therapists for special needs children does NOT modify the chinuch of the yeshiva in any way whatsoever. What have you been drinking?
The change has meant the bringing in of outside secularly trained therapists.
The problems have grown worse, many times worse than they ever were before.
Incidentally the exact same trajectory has been seen before in the PS system.
As for the Rabbonim you quote. No, I have not read most of them excluding Rav Shlomo Wolbe zt”l and I find it interesting that you quote him. I suggest you look for a small soft covered volume of a bunch of Rav Wolbe zt”ls letters that were published in honor of his shloshim. One of the longest letters that Rav Wolbe writes is one where he goes through the basis of psychology, its founders, his issues with two main “hashkofos” of psychology (one of them being self esteem) writes that he believes that psychology is responsible for the widespread Kefira in Bechira that is found today. He ends by writing that the “war” of our generation is to be “marchik”, to push away the “daas’ of psychology from our camp as much as possible! The letter is brilliantly written in the methodical crystal clear manner that anyone who has read of Rav Wolbe’s works is accustomed to so I would recommend you find the Sefer and learn it. In this letter he makes reference to a much longer piece on the topic which he included in a Journal in Eretz Yisroel.
And by the way, yes, if my car is broken I bring it to a mechanic because mechanics have demonstrated they have the ability to fix cars. Psychology has been around for decades and the only thing they have demonstrated is widespread failure everywhere its “teachings” have been adopted.
