We must never forget what the social climate was back in 2020 when everything stopped. Everything that had any meaning to my daughter was canceled. Her prom, hobbies, sports, friends, movies, restaurants, everything. And when I dared to object to the prom being cancelled, there was a MASSIVE societal effort to crucify people like me. We were called entitled, short sighted, selfish, grandma killers, dangerous, etc. The level of vitriol hurled at us was just unreal. I've never seen anything so coordinated and vicious. So now it is coming home to roost and it is so tragic because we saw it coming a mile away. There was a point where she nearly slipped into an eating disorder, but we ended up going to church weekly. We found a good, upbeat place with lots of young people and that helped her turn the corner. We really can't expect society to help get the kids out of this pit, because society dug the pit. We have to turn to spiritual means.

Not just teen girls are affected, teen boys too!

My daughter is an incredible human being who since lockdowns just feels “off” with a pervasive feeling of dread. I want to get her help but can’t turn to doctors who will want to out her on antidepressants despite the acknowledgment there is little evidence that the chemical imbalance / low serotonin levels cause depression. I am feeling helpless that this incredible athlete, scholar and all around wonderful person is struggling and I do t know what to do! I am grateful our relationship is such that she feels safe telling me what is going on but I need help in guiding her through this. She deleted TikTok (by choice!) and is cutting down overall social media but too soon to track impact. Any suggestions welcome!

I would imagine being locked in a room, masked up, with a lunatic/woke/leftist/bisexual/lesbian/who identifies as a moron is no fun. Then, going home, with your head GLUED to a phone screen, is no fun. Being forcibly jabbed with reproductive harm toxins is no fun. Being told you are all rocket scientists, (you go girlll, having children is bad) and boys are all toxic, daily, and trying to date soyboys probably is rough.

Still:

Teen boys, like adult males, commit suicide 4x more frequently. Girls, attempt nearly as often.

I would like to add. Not only teenagers, but single adults such as my 37 year old daughter. After being forced out of her dorm room in March 2020, she has been back home HERE for almost 3 years. She was in Toronto , but moved back to Windsor Ont. She is in a funk that she can't seem to get out of. Many of her friends won't have anything to do with the "anti-vaxer", neither her friends in Windsor or Toronto. She hardly even leaves the house now. We can't even take her to a doctor, because we don't trust the doctors anymore. All I can do is keep praying for her.

Extremely sad state of affairs. My neighbors 15 year old daughter hung herself in their garage. Very sad. They rushed her to Hasbro Children's hospital and tried to revive her. She did not survive. My daughter suffers with off-and-on depression. When they kicked them all out of the colleges in Boston during the pandemic, she came home. We helped her get an online therapist, but it was almost impossible to get one. Most were way over-loaded with cases. We did finally find one. Her roommate went home to TX and did not come back to school in Boston. They had become close friends. These young adults lives were severely uprooted and turned upside down. For the kids that already suffer with some bit of depression, it became deadly rapidly. Me and my wife lost many nights sleep. You try your absolute best, but mental illness is a difficult. We have a very stable home, as did my neighbors. Kids today are confused in so many different ways.

When I was a teenager, 40 years ago, there was enough pressure then as I would look at Vogue magazine and feel like I don’t look like those skinny fashion models...but you work through that...and figure out the best ‘you’ that you can be...

I feel for the teenagers now...yes, lockdowns, isolation, school closures...& free time to be on social media...pressure is real...I feel for them...I wouldn’t trade my life to be young again...we had it pretty good for a long time...but now what is going on in the world is disheartening to say the least...🙈😳

Thank you for highlighting this awful result attained by the monsters directing the show.

Your impactful writing is so appropriate.

No one says it better than you.

I disagree. I think the primary reason is social media. It’s toxic.

I think the warning signs were there already for years, Paul. Even way more than subliminally. Lockdown sadly just pushed them all over the edge.

It's way more subtle than what the article suggests, and it's been coming on a long time with social media and zero boundaries on poor behaviour.

"Spare the rod and spoil the child".

My dad used to hit us with his belt or the hose-pipe.

He caught me and my mate smoking cigarettes in junior school at age 11, when my mate stayed over for a weekend and my parents went out on a Saturday night. When they came home, the whole house (unbeknownst to us) smelled of cigarettes. We thought having a small fan in my room blowing the cigarette smoke out the window would eliminate the smell. My old man really gave me a proper thrashing that night and sent my mate home.

My elder brother (17 at the time) and I (16 at the time) once stole my dad's car and the keys to a small apartment my dad had on the seafront, and sat on the balcony of the apartment in the evening drinking beer and playing a ghetto blaster.

My dad caught us as he and my mom were leaving a restaurant that was directly across the road from the apartment and, as lady luck would have it, as he looked up at the apartment, he saw us on the balcony. When we got back home, my brother locked himself in the bathroom. My dad lunged at me, but I told him "don't even try, because I'll hit you back this time". He knew the hitting was over, but he used his mind and said words I'll never forgot:

"Your brother Herman is a fucking idiot, but you're not. And I expect much more from you".

Fraudchi should stand trial for crimes against humanity.

girls are being pressured beyond their ability to cope by the gender identity cult, boys in their bathrooms and changing rooms and lack of private space, both at home during the spurious covid crap and at school, and surrounded by lack of rational adults to protect them.

Girl teens were already suffering high levels of suicide due to social media and the new unrealistic commercial expectations. All these years, too, girls are turning more to sex reassignment surgeries due to gender trauma. There is a vast number of books. GENDER HURTS, and IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE, to name two of many. It is horrifying the medical and psychiatric professions are pushing this anti science agenda. My complaint is how our leaders dealt with covid -- zero financial support to people, or alternative provisions. Instead we have seen predatory capitalism and the war machine rake in trillions of dollars exploiting our vulnerability, throwing many into homelessness, joblessnes, divorce, domestic abuse, and addiction. There is a much bigger picture as to why girls are commiting suicide.

I worked as a bedside nurse in a PICU in a large Children’s Hospital during the plandemic. Starting in May 2020, we began averaging 5-7 suicidal ideation/attempts per week between the Peds ED and PICU ( the majority were girls aged 10-15). We did have a few boys too and two of them died from a GSW to the head. ( the boys don’t f around). These children came from all socioeconomic backgrounds. When I quit in December 2021 (due to the vaccine mandate that I refused to participate in) there were still that many kids coming in to the hospital, but now there was such a shortage of psych beds that kids were being sent to places 3-4 hours from where they lived. Some other things I noticed just generally as suicide attempters were not allowed to have their cellphones……..almost all of my PICU kids had cellphones in their hot little hands for the entire admission, unless they were going to the OR or comatose, even the really sick ones. The TV shows on in the rooms ( and that was usually with the parent watching too) were often totally inappropriate for children. Parents were stressed out and sad and often couldn’t be there emotionally for their kids because of trying to cope with the plandemic themselves. I had one girl that died from suicide who had carved “Love Me” on her thigh with a razor blade. What this country and their unscientific and ridiculous mandates did to our children was unconscionable and in many ways irreparable.

And the bio weapon probably caused behaviour changes. My husband has severe behavior/ personality problems after the second Pfizer poison.
