    My granddaughters and sons are doing just fine! Their parents make sure they have lots of physical outdoor activities. They associate with their friends whose families have been quarantined. People are finding ways in the new normal to keep their kids safe.

    The inconvenience of some can not be prioritized over the life-and-death of others.

    People should WANT to help protect their fellow Americans.

    If they don't, the government should force them to.

    And the ones that aren’t coping as well? Should we google suicide rates amongst young people and check on the current trends?

    It raises the question of which is worse, the virus or the response it?

    I’ve heard quite enough about ‘inconveniences’.

    This ‘new normal’ dystopia needs to be rejected.

    The collateral damage from the pandemic continues: Young adults, as well as Black and Latino people of all ages, describe rising levels of anxiety, depression and even suicidal thoughts, and increased substance abuse, according to findings reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

    In a research survey, U.S. residents reported signs of eroding mental health in reaction to the toll of coronavirus illnesses and deaths, *and to the life-altering restrictions imposed by lockdowns.*

    Over 40% of the *200,000 were nursing home residents with an average ‘life span’ of 13 months.

    How many young people has mitigation killed in the meantime? How many young drug addicts and alcoholics is it producing?

    That is to be expected. It is only logical that stressful situations are going to be difficult for those who are normally under a lot of stress. The key thought here is that dropping all of the measures used to fight the virus is not going to produce a stress-free condition. Simply having a deadly pandemic rip through society is stressful in itself.

    It should also be noted that Trump supporters would normally not care about the plight of depressed people.

    It is a 'fake concern.' The only reason there is any attention being given to the situation by Trump supporters is because of the coronavirus.

    Coronavirus goes away? Trump supporter concern for the mentally anguished goes away just as fast.

    This sounds as crass as the guy in Texas who thought old people should 'take one for the economy.'
