I think its not just kids anymore, it’s adults too. Everyone is glued to their screens these days. But kids are more vulnerable to influences from “social” media and don’t have any defences to the psychological warfare going on. Of course they feel like shit.
This smells like one of those fake clickbait stories…
Don’t think so. Havent you met kids feeling shit because of social media? It’s everywhere.
Maybe people feel like shit cause the planet is being destroyed by a bunch of rich assholes?
I don’t think banning this knowledge from kids is going to help.
Meanwhile my kids and all their classmates seem friendlier and more mentally healthier than I remember school age being. It’s all anecdotal. I’m always surprised at certain ages how some of these kids don’t allow bullying, and aren’t concerned with stupid relationship shit that I remember 20-30 years ago. It’s interesting.
I also know shitloads of adults depressed from Doom scrolling all day.
Your gross generalizations aren’t reality.
