I believe there’s a serious mental health crisis on the horizon, especially for younger folks. I’m sure being a high-profile, elite athlete puts a lot more stress on a person, but it seems like most younger folks just can’t handle life.
And I completely blame social media. All the “bad stuff” about life is right there, every day, bombarding folks constantly. There’s no down time, at all.
Yep
Oh, you have hit the nail on the head. There are so many young people who have no coping skills. Their parents who are constantly telling them from the time they can toddle “Be careful!” have not allowed them to fall down and get hurt and then learn to handle falling. On top of that, they are told “Good job!” in situations in which they have made no effort to accomplish anything.
