The great rewiring: is social media really behind an epidemic of teenage mental illness? The evidence is equivocal on whether screen time is to blame for rising levels of teen depression and anxiety.

I’m certain you can understand the difference between a claim like “the earth will be unsuitable for human life” and “parts of the world will become uninhabitable”.

I’m just as concerned about climate change as the next guy, but hyperbole doesn’t help our cause.

I don’t think that’s a popular assertion amongst lemmy commenters!

I honestly don’t know. The pressures of today are many and varied, but growing up in the 50s world have had its own challenges to be sure.

Hey I feel you.

My daughter was 1 month prem. Started at 8th centile but dropped to 3rd over a month or 6 weeks.

5 months along now. She’s doing a bit better in the last couple of weeks but still hard work.

Good luck anyway mate.
