    these kids are so young what is happening that they are so anxious and depressed at such a young age.

    This is what happens when you wrap them in cotton wool and end up like that when life doesn't go their way

    They should have been around in the 1980s when it seemed everyday was murder and bombs in Northern Ireland, kidnappings and punishment shootings/beatings.
    It was not pleasant being a child seeing that on the news but we were not depressed.

    As I said earlier in the thread. 1980 rural Ireland, No internet so no netflix, no tiktok. Bombs and punishment beatings on the news every night. How did we survive it?

    You went in to Dublin City Centre stressed out at Christmas suspecting any Northridden reg car was loaded with a ticking bomb and gave it a wide berth.

    As opposed to not being allowed to touch anyone else, see anyone over 65 and everyone in your school is trying not to breathe the air. Give me a bomb any day, at least you can see that. The psychological impact of this is hell, espcially on teenagers.

    To be honest I think boredom is a large part of it.

    A lot of bus numbers involved in this story and Joe trying to outsmart the caller with his knowledge.
