The main point here I guess is that Children can't necessarily judge that.

I don't think its particularly helpful as based on what I've seen myself, a lot of these 'support networks' actually veer on glorifying the issues.

You shouldn't base your social group on an echo chamber.

These are all great points.

I think glorification occurs because it’sa much easier way to, at least temporarily, alleviate the struggle some issues can cause. It’s an understandable response to pain, especially in young people confronted with complex internal problems.

Also your point about children not being able to judge these things for themselves immediately made me think... It seems a lot adults can’t be relied on to do it either.

Totally agree on your final point! Though that's a discussion for another time...

The glorification can provide short term relief but creates countless more issues than it solves.
