[quote=Anonymous]NP. My child's mental health was harmed by the pandemic, as was that of DH and myself. Closing schools was very detrimental and reopening schools was very beneficial. But I don't think that school counselors or therapists or psychiatrists are what is needed for children's mental health crises. I think the pandemic was a magnifier for the mental health crises that children already had before the pandemic - and I think the blame and the solution is in social media, screens, and the breakdown of culture in person. Meeting up at Starbucks or the park or local hang-out is healthy - texting is not, at the core of the issue. I think that parents and kids can be the solution, and I think that parents and kids need to be the solution. JMO.[/quote]
