Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid row over Greta Thunberg as he calls climate activist, 16, ‘unstable’

Greta, 16, shed tears on Monday during a passionate speech at the UN Climate Summit, as she slammed world leaders for "stealing my childhood".

The youngster has been diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, selective mutism and OCD.

During a debate on Good Morning Britain, Piers said he felt "uncomfortable" during her speech, knowing she has come from a "damaged background which should not be ignored".

But co-host Susanna said she found it difficult listening to Piers having a go at her.

She said: "I find it very uncomfortable you criticising her. I think describing her as 'unstable' it is very unfair."

Piers interrupted her, once again calling Greta "unstable".

Trying to speak over him Susanna added: "But you get upset when people criticise President Trump when he's in full flow and being unstable."

I just read she is already 16. That's old enough to know better.

"in 1975 the suggestion was considered outré—today it is orthodox"

That looks like Michael J. Pollard in the background. He hadn’t changed a bit - looks exactly the same as he did in Bonnie and Clyde (the 1st time I ever saw him.)

Well, you missed lovely Kim Darby of "True Grit" fame as Michael J. Pollard's coming of age love intrest right there in front of him.

As a side note: apparently MJP was 27 years old when cast here as a coming of age adolescent.

"Well, you missed lovely Kim Darby of "True Grit"..."

Oh, yeah, I did. I see her now. I guess Pollard's face is so unique that it just jumped out at me. Ha!

“Before she started freaking out and having constant nightmares about global warming, she was freaking out and having nightmares about other things, all kinds of things.”

Yes, “selective mutism” is an anxiety disorder, usually based on social anxiety but it could be caused by other things as well. She is naturally predisposed to irrational fear. That’s probably why the climate hoax appeals to her.

This child is being used and abused. She should be in school. She should say how dare you to the people that put her up to this so they can be famous by being around her.

She’s already professionally diagnosed as mentally ill. Per her mother’s book, she was diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety and autism/Asperger before the age of 10. Reinforcing the diagnosis is the fact that her non-famous sister has been diagnosed with Aspbergers and attention deficit disorder.
