Kids in Trouble?

 Sabine Menkens wrote up an interesting piece for WELT this morning and I'd recommend a read of the paper or view N-24 news for the commentary.

There's been a study done, which basically says in the nation of Germany....the majority of Germans believe the country is NOT a child-friendly place.

Chief reason?  Well....this leads back to Covid and the past two years.

Prior to Covid....I doubt if any German mental clinics had ever sat and contemplated how a epidemic would happen and it's affect on teenagers.  

You add up closed schools at various times....the zoom 'gimmick' to replace in-class situations....curfews at various times, and the problems of visiting any 'buddy'.....it created this 'Twilight-Zone-like' atmosphere for kids to survive.

Fixing this?  How?

As always, we sacrifice the young upon the alter of keeping the post-war generation happy, wealthy, and safe. And then we turn around and wonder why they march in protest about things.

A lot of this is lack of human contact...marginal school knowledge gained....stupid curfew rules in 2020/2021. But if you watch the video of the Monday night anti-Covid marches....it's mostly all adults (rarely seeing kids of 13 or 14). What the news media does show....the Fridays-for-the-Future marches where the kids (age 13/14/15/16) are the only ones to show up. A lot of mixed signals going on, just my humble thoughts.

Unfortunately there's a complicit media apparatus and constant infiltration to undermine these movements. They need to be smarter like the HK protestors. Whenever someone caused trouble within the protesting group the protestors would detain them and usually find that they were CCP police sent from the mainland to stoke up anti-protestor sentiment. Just like occupy, FFF, ER, and all other movements that challenge the status quo.
