.... spoke with Yael Levin-Sheldon, who is a parent who resides in Henrico County, Virginia. She also works as a data analyst and using various contacts she has been able to obtain the health records from her state to see if there is definable evidence of the harm being brought to students. What she has uncovered is rather jarring. Using the Freedom of Information Act Levin Sheldon has been able to look at the charts showing the incidents of suicide attempts and self-harm cases of children in her state, and the data is stark.
The motivation behind obtaining this information sprung up from the sheer frustrations experienced by Levin-Sheldon in her region. She runs groups for the parents of school children in her area and not only has she seen increased anxiety and frustration from these parents but she noted a darker trend occurring. She was receiving a growing number of those coming to them anonymously with stories of children who have been threatening themselves over the prolonged removal from schools.
As a result, Levin-Sheldon began to look into the veracity of these stories. Through the FOIA request, the spreadsheet obtained (viewable here) covers all of the patient health districts in Virginia and over the course of the past four years of admissions. The chart provides both the numbers of admissions for suicides and/or self-harm visits to emergency departments, as well as the rates of these particular admissions per 10,000 ED visits. These tell the story of what is happening to the children in Virginia....

How did kids fare before universal, mandatory schooling?
It’s BS on its face.
All according to plan.
That’s why one of my topic choices for any posting having to do with the ‘rona is “Conspiracy.”
Maybe Governor Northam can put on some blackface and a wig and go cheer those kids up.
We’re seemingly in the falling away and many people likewise seem as if they’re being turned over to reprobate minds.
Expect things to get worse, not better.
I’m not sure what your post means.
But I can see very well that all of the fear promulgated through the media, the strains in households during lockdown, lack of social connection and the mindlessness and disconnection of trying to learn by ‘Zoom’ is causing a lot of depression in school-age children.
The ‘cure’ seems to have been much worse than the disease.
Lack of campus-based education is not causing teen suicides.
‘Campus-Based’ education includes a lot of things.
What do you think is causing all of the problems?
“DEFUND TEACHERS UNIONS!”
What the he}}, northam thinks it’s abortion post facto.
Yes, but with nanny state parents wrapping their children in cotton wool, these kids have no real life of their own. Add to that kids obsession with TV and asocial media and it’s no wonder they feel depressed.
Citizens in all states need to work with their state lawmakers to make the following changes to their state constitutions regarding quarantines imo.
State constitutions need to be amended to put time limits on quarantines.
State constitutions also need to be amended to make state health officials elected by popular vote.
Constitutionally time-limited lockdowns also need to automatically trigger special recall elections for governors, mayors and health officials who order quarantines, also state lawmakers.
Finally, constitutions need to require people planning to run for state and local offices to escrow a refundable "recall deposit" before becoming a candidate, the deposit fully paying in advance for their possible recall elections if they are elected, amounts determined by law.
They don’t care as long as they can keep you in house arrest.
I think of people like the pioneers.
I guess they were too busy just trying to survive to worry about the nonsense that consumes most Americans these days.
It’s not the school closings that are the problem.
It’s the isolation they are demanding.
If not going to school were the problem, then homeschoolers would be facing a crisis like this, and I NEVER heard of any reports like this.
Nope, it’s the forced isolation from friends and family that is doing the damage.
Forced isolation and endless, pervasive fear-mongering.
