Dear editors of the world: Commission a piece from a special needs parent about the devastating toll this situation is having on their child. My DMs are full of them.
You can also commission a piece from a parent who lost their kid to suicide. I sadly know one of those. The toll this social distancing will have on teen mental health is also being completely ignored.
We’ve spent years saying kids are too disconnected and engaging in toxic communication online. And then we we took away all in person community and forced them to get all social interaction online. That will not come without consequences.
