[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you been paying any attention these last few years?  Tons of kids came out of the pandemic with some mental
health issues. It’s good that they are getting therapy and support. As a PP said, you’re gross. [/quote]

Stop blaming the pandemic.  Most did not have their lives changed much or had many losses.   You are gross. [/quote]

DP - the pandemic absolutely had a huge impact on mental of many youth and children. Most of the kids at DC’ competitive medium sized  private school struggled with mental health issues. National experts are reporting a crisis in mental health of youth. Suicides/ Eating disorders and substance abuse are way up among youth nation wide: it was especially hard going through puberty during pandemic because the kids were online all day for school and exposure to social media toxicities went up.

Who on earth told you this?

Most of my kids peers were at some relatives beach or ski house for months and months zooming in a couple hours.

No school for almost two years - or a big slashing or school time- was terrible for kids’ confidence, skills, knowledge and work habits. [/quote]

The increase in mental health and related issues among youth is well documented - national health authorities declared it to be a national emergency.

A majority of children and youth did not have beach houses to escape to.

Yes it was terrible for kids confidence, social skills and mental health. They are all connected. [/quote]
