> I don't think it's a surprise that we now see an epidemic of kids with mental health problems

To be fair, it's likely those mental health problems were there with most generations but went undiagnosed.

We don't have a pandemic of cancer today, people just used to die from other shit before it got to them.

Unless you don’t believe self surveys of the children themselves, it is unequivocally worse now.

Sounds like that would be very subjective and hard to compare?
