Yeah, exactly. And instead if the kid is struggling by all means help them through it or find someone who can.

I do one day a week with a Youth Charity and we’ve seen this issue close up. There’s some very complicated issues at play here and this kids going through them are in a dark place indeed. Any sign of difference as a teenager can be brutal in terms of bullying etc.
I’m not an expert in these matters by any means but the media version of the issue is very different to what I see in real life.
Resources are stretched to fuck these days.
