Didn't she write about having anorexia? Having experienced something like that, you'd think she'd be more understanding of how challenging life can be? How people are different and experience things differently?

It’s *substantially* a result of money, for many, many reasons. Access to opportunity, opportunity to fail at a high risk, expensive sport, etc.

But you evidently disagree, which is fine, of course.

Have a good night too 👍🏾

There’s not much to discuss. It’s truly a riches to riches story 🤷🏾‍♂️

Wow. You are a “motorsport fan”.

Lol sounds like a very good reason for tighter regulations for social media companies, better fines for non-conformance, etc, etc…😅

Effectively as outlined in that (very balanced) article, “the entire internet is not being turned off for kids.”.

The discussion of trial and error is what I’m referring to; there’s gonna be parent-parent-child-teacher combat and some growing pains. Expected, I guess 🤷🏾‍♂️

I sympathise with trying to balance public opinion, professional guidance, and political motivations.

Having engaged with our kids and their friends about this…I simply see trouble ahead. I’m personally not yet clear that a ban is the answer, noting the Aus ban isn’t on *all* social media sites…

Just to be clear; I wasn’t saying everyone is against the ban…plus I don’t only have the BBC as a source of info. There’s some very good professional voices on BlueSky and other social media 👍🏾

this is a real thing where the media jumps behind parents who are grieving & rightfully looking for answers, but the stomp right over experts as they gain momentum

But I’m not even keen on bangers and mash 🤷🏾‍♂️
