alright, you're probably not looking for it, but I'm gonna give some feedback: the data was rather hard to properly interpret using your way of displaying it. I understand you're going for a cool looking representation but here it's really detracting from the message. the numbers are percentual but you also include how many are in each group which makes it rather hard to track. Using the same colors for different data that changes rather rapidly also makes it rather hard to see what's going on. the only way I 'got' my information was by whatever you were saying, by the facts you recounted, not by the visual on the screen. prime example: "you can see that a HUGE portion of kids..." (4:05) I was taken very of guard, because it is almost impossible to interpret how big it is in comparison. percentually, looking at the colors, it's not that different from "no adverse experience", but then again the horizontal 'width" of the no adverse experience group is stretched meaning you can't make a good comparison. Then I saw that the middle group is way bigger and there it was even harder to gauge how the percentual numbers stacked up. The whole visual makes me (at first glance) think that there is barely a difference here, while you say otherwise! but yeah for the rest, cool vid idea, conceptually cool visuals. Feel free to ignore this critique, it's just my POV.

There would be an abundance of stressful and uncomfortable situations where they would be relying on me and I would have to be "the adult," I would be responsible for their safety, and mistakes I make could have a lifelong affect on them. When I go home, they would always be there, sacrificing privacy and alone time. I might not want to dedicate that much time and effort to a child, and I wouldn't want to put one in a situation where they're being neglected or feeling unwanted.

But the point is that childhood trauma can have a negative impacts on your "success", or more accurately, your mental health and development which can translate to worse outcomes along the line. And a lot of kids who come traumatic backgrounds (especially true with immigrant households) may have been pressured to perform well in school, others may have done well in school to escape their backgrounds etc etc. And it's important to understand that financial/educational success does not equate with the quality of someone's life, which includes things that childhood trauma can affect such as mental health.

I see you also got recommended this video randomly.

As someone who is in their period of limbo from childhood to adulthood with negative childhood experiences, I now worry what the future will look like more than ever before. As a child and a teen, you're encouraged to put so much trust in the system that is supposed to reward hard work, but I wonder if all that work really makes any difference. It's rather depressing knowing I might not be able to escape where I've come from, but also terrifying and exciting knowing I have the opportunity to make my own of it.

The software you used to depict the graphs is an interesting gimmick, but often hard to read. You place the tiny legend at the top in reverse order, the stacks are different in thickness, so it's hard to visually read the ratio depicted.

very well made, but next time, keep the diagramms on the same length, with different lengths for number of adverse experiences it is not easily comparable, instead more increase in the vertical direction, as you did for them too

Yes, I agree that struggles and adverse experiences during childhood are challenging. However, the message that people can use their childhood experiences as an excuse for not doing well in adulthood is a terrible message to send. I was abandoned as a child, struggled with speech problems, and others tried to hold me back with their low expectations. Now, through striving to do my best and developing self-confidence, I am graduating as the co-valedictorian of my high school class. Don’t let challenges early in life hold you back.

As a retired HR and Training guy, I saw first-hand the "Alex's" and the social challenges they brings to a workplace. I actually had a young woman say that she loved work because it was where she was "safe" and sought overtime work to delay her inevitable trip back home. I never chose to have kids of my own. Too many examples of parenting failures around me growing up. We (as a species) NEED to do better if we CHOOSE to become parents!

College being an intermediate between highschool and adulthood is so true though. I'm a freshman in college about to be sophmore and I feel like I'm still a kid but trying to act like an adult. I don't know how to explain it better than that, weird period. But honestly so much better than highschool though im ngl, done with that part of my life.

The format is very nicely done. But it moves through the conclusions/commentary very quickly, you have to pause at each thing to confirm the diagram matches what he’s saying. And honestly it seems like sometimes it doesn’t. The box highlights certain intersections of groups and looks at just their size, rather than comparing their size to other relevant intersections to establish a baseline. Rough example, it’s the difference between pointing out that many people with many adverse experiences have low income, and comparing the intersection of low income and many adversities with low income and some adversity, and low income and no adversity. And other ways to slice the data

There seems to be a lot of "look at the size of the box" i.e. the absolute number of people. But if there're more total people in a category that could make one box look bigger despite having the same percentage. At the bare minimum put percentage or pie graph on the side as well!

Maybe you could explore what this means, ie that people growing up in risky environments are more likely to financialy struggle when they reach adulthood, other than that it's really good!

Nice video. Very professional looking and great narration. My only gripe is when you say which group "mostly" does or has something. The numbers are almost always higher for the middle group in every case you brought up. Sure, percentage wise, those that reported they experienced no adverse experiences/many adverse experiences, may have a higher chance for a given thing, but when you look at those numbers, the largest percentage of people in general are the ones who experienced some adverse events. This isn't a really a problem, I guess. I just think it could have been reworded a bit. Oh well, the general point is understood and that is what really matters after all.

Great video. Awesome animations and storytelling. I feel like it could use a little more exploration of the background research and statistics to support the idea that adverse childhood experiences are this most important step in the causal chain. I think it'd lend the argument credibility and selfishly, I love research and stats so it follows that I'd make such a demand. Nonetheless, kickass video. I may have just found a new favorite channel

the two things i got from this are that if you have a rough childhood, you're going to carry that with you and it'll make things hard in the future and even if you have a great childhood you can still have problems in adulthood.

you should add percentages and go a bit slower with the introduction of new colors, cause it was a bit hard to follow. Other than that, this was the most intresting video i've seen in the last week, I love the style and dedication that has been put into it, keep it up!

As a middle and high school teacher, I'm always bothered by how much adults blame kids for their own situations. Other teachers and parents, they are always saying kids have to take responsiblity, that they are "already grown up" and it's their fault when something goes wrong (this starts as soon as 11 or 12 years old, in my experience). And then we adults also control and micromanage every aspect of their lives. We control what they can and can't do and sometimes even force them into choosing a single option, and then we blame then when it all goes wrong. Even in households that have none of those "adverse experiences" you mention, they still have issues that can scar them. Perfectionists parents that ask too much from them, rich parents that are never in their home because they need to work 2 or 3 jobs to mantain their lifestyle, or their job keeps them travelling most of the time, exposition to higher class standards that makes them feel bad with themselves when they can't reach the stupidly high standards of the people that surround them. We adults fuck around too much with them like they are not real people, and then get angry at them when they don't consider themselves real people. We seriously need to stop. For me, it all starts in education. Most adults went through that experience when they were teenagers so they think that's the only way to treat a teenager. But a single parent or teacher can make a big change, IMO. If you interact with a teenager, just talk to them about this, give them the chance to choose, listen to them, tell them that yeah, you also went through that and you also think it's bullshit and SHOW them that it is possible to be treated differently by an adult. That teenager will grow, and become an adult that doesn't replicate the cycle with the teenagers in their life. It's a slow process, but it's the only way.

The animations are beautiful! Unbelievable this video doesn't get pushed more

I loved this! Aesthetically, how you present the information, the subject, the ethics. Thank you Also, while I was whatching this I thought that it would be so interesting to see how neurodivergence (autism, ADHD, dyslexia and others) affect us in the long term run. I am a 25 year old autistic woman (also with ADHD) diagnosed last month and many of my friends are autistic, so I know that for us the chances of getting bullied are higher, or getting socially ostracized, for example. The academic performance also varies. In my case, my special interests related to science and art and sociology helped me retain the information I was asked to know, but when executive functioning was required (planning ahead, doing homework, study in advance) I failed. Not every neurodivergent person is the same, but for many of us, we were considered "gifted" because school was easy for us, but as we get older and more consistency and work is required, the grades start to falter and people get dissapointed becuase "you were so smart. And we, whom have been reliant on or academic performance in a way to get approval, because maybe we were not popular or not liked, end up feeling like we're good for nothing, and that ends up hurting our career prospects, future and mental health...

Very interesting, especially the facts & conclusion. Longitudinal studies are hard to do. Take it easy Alex :]

This makes me scared for how the COVID pandemic will affect children growing up from 2020-2023. I was 14 when it started, I'm almost 18 now. If factors like uninvolved parents can affect a person's life outcomes, I'm wondering how an entire generation of children will be hardwired differently. I'm thinking that it will make us so much lonelier and more depressed/anxious. e.g. a lot of children in middle school right now are extremely dependent on TikTok, I find them to be less sociable and more impolite (?) to service workers.

I was verbally and physically abused by both my parents, I was bullied at school, I had mental and physical health problems. I didn't go to colleges because of financial reasons. It lines up...

I feel for you and I really think life isn’t fair. I wish you lots of happiness and peace of mind🙏🏻

Cudos to whoever animated this. Also those who did the research and wrote the script and the guy who readit out, it was really really well made

How can conservatives still think that these people deserve to be poor when it is society that causes many of the issues of poverty?

you don't control any variable that determine who you are, how you think, what you can think, etc... genetic (epigenetic) discrimination is everywhere always.

I hope that at some point the comments in this comment section begin to acknowledge the work that seemed to be put into making this video, evaluating such a large dataset always takes a lot of work so just wanted to mention that that work is much appreciated :)

Amazing video!!

Fantastic video

Great video

Truly a great video! Although it was confusing for a second there with the colors but i quickly understood what was going on maybe a heads-up next time would be good & i almost didnt click on this video because of the title & thumbnail Good thing that i eventually did :)

Love the message

crazy this video has less than 3k views and is so informative!

Commenting to hopefully increase engagement and get this picked up by the algorithm. Great vid!

Amazing! A shame it has so few views

I've read this book called "Switch: How to Change Things when Change is hard" and in it says sometimes we're so wired to look for problems that we overlook the bright spots. The bright spots are purple kids in the group that is majority pink. Why are their lives different? Is there anything we can learn from them that we can give the others in their same group?

I want someone to do this study on teens who lived through the pandemic and see how it'll turn out-

very well made video, nice! :D

The data visualization with the human figures is visually pleasing but statistically ambiguous. I found it hard to gather from a glance the proportion of each group in each data category. This is because the adverse experience groups were all of different size, so looking at absolute numbers doesn't give a complete comparison. I think including the actual percentage breakdowns for each group in addition to the shown visuals would have been a useful addition.

As another viewer commented, but I must mention it for more recognition, the visual were really not in line with your conclusions, in fact, visually the statistics suggest that there is no anomaly here, but instead that everything is seemingly evolving as you would expect it to evolve, but in any case I was unable to understand nearly anything, and I personally have a great understanding of statistics, but this one is just plain confusing.

I agree with other comments that the visulization is a bit shaky. However, I'm still going to comment because I think this is a really interesting video and I want the algorithm to boost it.

Amazing video!

Great video!

I can see others have commented the same and I do want to say I respect and value the artistic effort put into the video, but the visual form of the data presentation was extremely difficult to follow. At first I thought oh this is neat they have little animations, but by the time I was halfway through I had given up on trying to interpret the ratios of groups with all the rapid movement and lack of text presentation to match. And to be clear I don't think it's just the movement and colors, I think the formatting/presentation of the groups and trying to represent outcomes in other categories, with the presentation of rows of tallies with some each grouping having a different number of rows, is very tough to visually digest.

3:31 thanks for explicitly mentioning this

The most wildly underrated video I’ve seen.

Awesome video !

This content is pretty cool! I have never seen data like this before.

beautiful video, liked and subbed

i loved this video! ❤

very well-done video that deserves more views.

That's why as a 16 years old girl who have 2 little siblings im trying my best to let them be raised properly to avoid screaming at them or even slapping them it's kinda hard because this generation is a lil messy but we can really see how childhood well affect adulthood sm. A very good video wgood infos thank you❤
