Kids Go Mental as Climate Rhetoric Boils
SMH can't understand why kids are feeling so depressed
My friend Chris Kenny at Sky News drew my attention to an article in The Sydney Morning Herald this week warning that children are facing an unprecedented rate of mental health problems.
The August 6 article headline said:
“Children’s mental health is worsening. Where is the minister for primary kids?”
What’s going on with our children? Why are they so depressed? Why so anxious?
No-one knows, least of all those at The Sydney Morning Herald.
In unrelated news, the SMH ran a story just a week ago headlined:
“Global boiling: Sydney hasn’t done enough to prepare for lethal heat.”
That same week they can another article headlined:
“Record July heat prompts dire warning: Act now ‘or we all scorch and fry’”
A week before that the SMH lead story screamed:
“The hottest July in 120,000 years. What’s in store for Australia this summer?”
Anyway, back to the pandemic of depression that seems to be overtaking our kids. It’s a complete mystery.
If only someone knew what was causing all of this angst.
Sounds like Henny Penny running around saying that the sky is falling.
