America is in the midst of a teenage mental health crisis, according to official data that suggests a staggering number of children are suicidal.
A report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that in 2021, 10.2 percent of US high school students said they had attempted to kill themselves in the past 12 months, up from around 8 percent in 2019
The CDC also found that 30 percent of high schoolers also said they had poor mental health 'most of the time'. For girls, the figure was even higher — 40 percent.

Progressives in government and media say “Mission accomplished”
Record nunbers identify as LGBT nowadays.
Record numbers of teen girls are reported as being depressed.
There have been reports that a lot of young people are really depressed about global warming, and what does it mean for their futures, Etc.
Who can say if there’s any connection with all of these things. Are there other factors in our culture that are causing young people to be pessimistic about the future and depressed? If you listen to the liberals, life has never been better for LGBT, women ,various minority groups.
But the caveat, is that this is true only in liberal states where you’re allowed to get an abortion. Because to listen to the liberals on that, there are many states in America that are medieval nowadays.
Quit pretending you can negotiate with the Devil and prevail.
These kids are being raised in a Godless foundation and despair when they can't find acceptance among their peers.
Homosexuality has the highest suicide rate of any group. That is why the Party is pushing it.
That would make the successful suicide attempts more deadly than the dreaded AR-15 in that demographic.
How in the blazes can the teacher unions be so successful at deceiving the public?
A major factor is that our kids aren’t shielded from “adult” subject matter. They of fed the answer book before they get to work on the problems. Also, the media feeds depictions of extreme and profane behavior.
The result is that our kids are fed expectations that they try to become comfortable with but can’t. Rather than having to contend with mere peer pressure from those real people around them, they have to contend with media pressure in which actors with scripts portray of behavior that is beyond their reach, but they think they should be reaching for it, and they have conflicts with their young, still innocent internal compasses, and it’s not good for them.
When you’re too stupid to know what gender you are and are incapable of talking to people face to face and have to text them, then who gives a shxt. Thin the herd of weak useless people.
And they will never admit the correlation with all the enforced faggotry.
30 percent of high schoolers also said they had poor mental health ‘most of the time’.
a third are abusing drugs.
Dots all over the place observation distorted duh.
The commie plan is working out well.
A new study by trend forecasting agency J. Walter Thompson Innovation Group found that only 48 percent of 13-20-year-olds identify as "exclusively heterosexual," compared to 65 percent of millennials aged 21 to 34.
Of course, correlation does not equal causation. So I will just chalk it to evil.
Your image is a bit ironic, don’cha think?
Nothing like locking up kids for two years and thinking they’ll be normal on the other side.
Let’s see, we lock them up for 2 years with almost no social contact, and we send them to schools where mental ill teachers lie to them and say the world is going to end before they even can grow up, and then also expose them to perverted sexual practices. I can’t imagine why the kids would be having any issues.
In part caused by the CDC
re#14 - ironic
Oh wow. A double whammy!
Was it, is it suicide or was it, is it murder?
Robin Williams’ suicide/murder aside, I think this is civil engineering - deconstruction - cause and consequence orchestrated on an aloof public.
Take away their smartphone for five minutes, and they will be on suicide watch.
Any data on Fathers and mothers raising these kids?
Any data on medications and medication history.
