Young people and mental distress (TW article mentions suicide)

I was really shocked by this Guardian article that 7% of children have attempted suicide by age 17.

It got me thinking, what makes a good life for kids these days? Are there good places to live? Good lifestyles? Good ways to be together as a family?

Like many people we've been thinking of making some changes as a result of Covid, not sure what though?? Would love to hear if anyone else is thinking about this stuff.

Yes, this is astonishing, I think this lockdown has also increased young people's declining mental health, it is so sad to see my beautiful children deteriorate, I wish I could make their pain go away by ending this dreadful lockdown :( xx
