What about text only phones?
“No, you’re not”, that’s my response as a therapist. These kids are so messed up.
Survival instincts can be one hell of a sum bitch. Got kicked out at 17 and instantly had to lock in even if my brain didnt want to. Its the access to having a way out of any situation (living with parents, not growing up) My grandmother treated me like a flightless baby bird. Either you make it or you don't when thrown out the house and there isnt a single day that goes by that im not grateful for the tough love she gave me. It sucked but atleast I can take care of myself now and handle more stress than I would have before.
It's smart to live with family in the current economy.
Similarly, children are 'helped' by introducing them to the subject of 'cutting', it was normalized as a coping strategy by introducing it to children otherwise unaware of the topic.
Great discussion.There is hope!
Nailed it
Enforcing somebody to go to a shelter is not civilized
First of all nobody's going to make me go to no shelter and second of all I am not going to practice no religion because I'm an atheist and I'm happy being homeless and nobody's going to get me arrested for being homeless because that's my right my decision nobody's going to run my life for because they want to ruin my life
🥵these MFers are after our kids, THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK AND BRINGING THIS ISSUE TO LIGHT!. Parents, please do not leave your children along with any health care professional if you want to save your child from bad things. I have seen them ask kids do you like girls, boys or both which in my mind is sick.
"Manhattan Insights is an intellectual engine " What a fucking joke. This is a pure propagandist channel. Might as well call yourself the "Epoch TImes"
When I was a kid, my mom would send me to the store to pick up feminine pads, etc., AKA, male kryptonite. I survived that horror and still haven't become a mass murderer.
Under employment may not be unemployment but it’s more insidious
BS. My son wanted to leave the house at 18, went to college. Came back home after college and wanted to live on hid own, but realized living at home was free, why leave. At 30 he left home, a millionaire!
What she saying is true but the half truth. You see kids today are well aware of what is going on. Most of them are not even going to spend all their time and effort to just suck it to the boss who doesn’t get it. They will say oh back in my day cliché. What they failed to realize is that it’s about them first which is why they aren’t listening! Than they don’t get the math or the logistics of going to work and back plus the rent is always going up because they wanna get rich!! 🤑 failing to realize that kids today don’t have it easy as them. So they just say no I won’t even try to work or get a job! It’s because it’s useless when you are trying to tell someone you need help but aren’t willing to listen in the first place. That’s the problem.
The kids getting therapy these days don’t actually need it. True trauma and abuse cases should be the ones getting treatment, but kids with good upbringing and environment are getting therapy and it only makes well kids navel gaze and become sick.
I’m 25 I live with my parents because I can’t afford my own home and still live comfortably and be able to save money. I work for a very large company as a truck driver making great money but with the cost of things nowadays it’s just not financially responsible for me to leave, me and my wife live here and we’re in the process of splitting the house up and building a dividing wall. It’s the best compromise and most financially attainable.
It's not just kids this day and age
Girll, people are living with their parents because they candlt afford to live on their own the price of everything is so high. You are so out of touch.
I'm sure you're against eating meat and dairy, which are loaded with hormones.
So....overworked underpaid parents should throw their young adults out to the streets? Where are the jobs that pay enough to afford an apartment or rental room? What fantasy world does this woman live in?
I want to send this to my mother so badly right now.
It’s called progress lady most people have cell phones and everything you do is photograph and we know about everything people do now if we want to or not life has always been this way it hasn’t changed since the beginning of time.
No, this is definitely different. In some ways unprecedented.
Parents rear children into mental incompetence.
Someone needs to do something about these people
Because they've been taught that hedonism and self-focus will bring them joy. It doesn't. Competence and sacrificing for goals is far more effective. They may still need to live at home for economic reasons, but they don't need to do so because they fear adulthood.
lol they are living at home because you can’t afford a 1 bedroom apartment on 8$ an hour boomer.
Then learn some skills and make more than $8/hour instead of sitting in your parents house acting like you know shit. Put as much energy into making a good life for yourself as you do trying to blame anyone but yourself for only making $8/hr. Also, stop going to college for degrees that you knew in the beginning weren't going to make you enough to provide for yourself. I get that you feel superior and as though you are very knowledgeable, but how did you get that way? Your parents and elders made it too easy for you and now you expect the world to provide for you. Get a helmet and grow up. It's rough out there.
Boomers that paid $6K for their house and $4k for fancy master’s degrees (which they paid off year one/straight out the gate), but want 10 million for it at sale time 🙄.
Literally, this boomer has no clue how it is trying to get a job right now & when you do you still cant afford to live on your own in some places. The rent has just got more like every year or 2 when i was in one of my apartments the rent literally went up every 6 months. Its unsustainable.
It gets worse, I deep-dived the actual page and it is 100% just right-wing propaganda trash. The latest video talks about how Capitalism can save the environment, and not taking into account that the rampant capitalism of the past 100 years is the exact reason the climate is in decline! What fucking trash
@@ItsSquallyWally This clip is taken out of context. This isn't about being able to afford to move out. If these kids won the lottery tomorrow, they STILL wouldn't want to go anywhere.
Braindead take. Don't know who Abigail Shrier is, but nor do I care after listening to her nonsense here.
This person is delusional. How tf can the aveeage 20/yr old afford an apt
Family court made it this way. How many wives told their husband's that they will leave before the kids do and then file for divorce for child support?
Or it’s too expensive nowadays
Caesar Milan
Wow so true!!
Are you 50+ years old or a case of nepotism?
She's delusional. She obviously hasn't seen what the market looks like.
"Back in my days, I mowed grass every day to save up for my first house" 😂
This is about the harm of therapy, not the cost of housing.
@@mamadragonful this is ridiculous, half of her examples were about kids not leaving the house as adults. It's an entirely different point to therapy. Have you looked at the house market in the cities?
@@McSeal I've read her book. It doesn't have anything to do with housing. This clip is a tiny bit of an interview taken out of context. She's not talking about young adults living with parents to save money. She's talking about 14 year olds who still need a parent to help them cross the street. Or still need mom's help to fill out the paperwork to open a bank account when they're 25, because otherwise the application process triggers a panic attack. That's not the human norm.
My husband and I both work full time jobs with no kids and live with my parents. We both make over $18 and can't afford even a 1 bedroom apartment where we live. I did just pay off my car and my $2600 ER bill! Now we are working on paying for his school and paying off my student loan debt... and his car and our phones, and my new $580 blood lab fee. And also we pay for our own insurances and help with the grocery bill. We are also trying to save for a family, but that isnt looking like any time soon. Im only 22 so I got time.
Exactly
Some people are born with a genetic predisposition for depression or anxiety. She is not knowlegeable.
I thought she would be making only one terrible opinion is a video, turns out she also had a "back in my days" moment. Yeah, maybe the reason the most diagnosed, treated, therapied kids aren't the shining image of mentally well because they are actually the most mentally unwell and currently fighting to be the most well they can. Smh some old people can get really out of touch with reality. And "back in her day," those kids wouldn't be treated. They would just be put in a ward or asylum.
@@McSeal No, we're talking about well over half the adolescent population. This many kids weren't this sick until quite recently.
@@mamadragonful I didn't say everyone who goes to therapy is mentally unwell, I just used her example of the people that have a lot of therapy and drugs and all that being the perfect image. About 40-50% of Americans according to Google go to therapy, that doesn't make 40-50% of the population sick, people go to therapy to deal with the stress of work, to seek help with a few problems, to have advice on how to act in this day and age where stuff is digital and disconnected.
@@McSeal There's pretty strong evidence that the talk therapy being offered to teens for anxiety or depression is useless at best and harmful at worst. I've witnessed it first hand. Normal adolescent angst is being framed as a disability, which makes it significantly worse.
@@mamadragonful if your therapist frames it as a disability then they aren't a good therapist
I'm not gonna live with 12 people as a single father just to afford rent this kind of take is so out of touch that this kind of person should have no opinion no public opinion at least at all
Or, the fact that wages have fallen far behind the cost of living is keeping them at home. But I'm sure you "kids these days" rant is valid
Parents are doing too much or too little, you never win
The parents gave up on their kids immediately as "broken" and just used whatever diagnosis as an excuse not to parent properly. Parent: "If the therapist and drugs can't fix them.... how can I?" Child: "I'm broken, I can't do anything."
Actually, many of them are FOLLOWING the "official" parenting advice, with disastrous results. The folks parenting most successfully are those ignoring the experts.
@@mamadragonful There is no official parenting advice.
@@pearlangelineYes there is but you have to use your head for more then to just prop your hat in the air
@@donnydarko1898 No, there really isn't. Pretty much every book says something different and parenting classes are completely different as well. There is no "official" way to raise a child and there never has been. Even back in the 40's and 50's when there was literature for pretty much everything. Depending on the source of that literature the information was completely different. I would know, as I have been collecting vintage homemaker materials for years as a traditional wife and stay at home mother. There were definitely more popular reading materials back then but they were definitely all different. One thing I will point out is the more popular books ignored religion entirely to hit a larger audience making them not very helpful for mothers trying to raise godly children. Then you have parenting books created by the actual religious organizations and parenting materials created by companies trying to get you to purchase products. The most common chapters in all the books are going to be infant age (because kids haven't formed a personality yet) and dietary needs (because use of the food pyramid was super popular back then).
@@pearlangeline I'm talking about the kind of information that is sent out by the state and handed out at the doctor's office. I agree that there is always a wide variety of parenting advice out there. But there's also a particular style of parenting that has the current support of major institutions of power. The trend right now is "gentle parenting" and "help your child focus on their feelings." It's going to go down in history like bottle propping. Certainly very well intended, but it's REALLY not working.
They ask parents to leave the room because parents are often the cause of mental health distress. My parents contributed to increasing my anxiety and depression. My parents were neglectful. Parents do not OWN their children. Children are not extensions of the parent. Children are individuals. I am a parent myself. I found thar respecting and trusting my children did wonders to help them grow to independence.
This is a valid stance to take IF the relevant authorities are acting wisely and well.
I mostly agree with you. With one exception. The reality is that a parent does actually own their child. You write them off as a tax deduction each year just like a home, or a piece of land, and just like a large breed dog, a parent is financially responsible for the things a child does. Technically a child is property. However, the right thing to do is to raise a child as if they are not property.
If I’m the one that’s going to be held liable for the actions of my children then, yeah, I own them. When they become fully liable for their own actions then they’re on their own.
@@thomasdonohue4494 Couldn't agree more.
The unemployment numbers only appear so low. It took my 20 year old son 5 months to find a part time low paying job. Politicians and academics are not in touch with what is really going on.
Yes, they are. 🙂
today you need qualifications, certificates, or anything that shows you have experience or knowledge. It is very competitive in todays economy. Thus if he wants to make it I recommend looking into trade schools (consistently always needed and fairly cheap to get your foot into school compared to an actual degree). It sucks being told at 20 that you dont have any qualifications but its true as an employeer I will take the man with experience and age over a young buck needing to learn. Plus people are more likely to hire full time rather than part time. I understand what you mean and it sucks im not saying that its not hard to find a job. Its just that it requires more effort than it used to where you could just walk up and apply for the job and get on the spot. Times are changing.
They want the truth hidden, soviets and Cuba theory, we’re perfect
Took me until my 30s to stop having night terrors about school.
Really? That's pathetic. You know, people used to have to go off to war and watch their comrades get blown to bits or have survived some horrific event to end up with PTSD. Now we, humans that is, are so mentally weak and emotionally imature that experiencing normal childhood bullying is enough to do it.😑🙄😑🙄
@@Andrea-zm1nl Or maybe you don't know jack shit and school is genuinely worse than having somebody standing next to you bisected or turned into chunky salsa, since I would actually know.
It's society at large that is to blame... All markers have been rising for generations their just coming off the rails now... Our society is broken one of the reasons their intentionally collapsing it haha
Yep the problem with Roman was all those trans kids , amrite!
Society is made up of PEOPLE.
I’m getting a little tired of seeing someone push a book like this who isn’t a trained clinician. She makes valid points, but I just can’t take her seriously when she isn’t a professional clinician.
"Shrier is the daughter of Peter B. Krauser and Sherrie L. Krauser, both judges in the state of Maryland." She is a propagandist
'Politics' are a hoax.
what she's saying is music to the ears of obstinate bullies, abusers, rigidly and emotionally blind people who seek to strengthen enablement endorsement from society to to continue to victimize the vulnerable. it's great to say kids need to grow up, people need to grow out of it and move on, when it's someone else. when it's something she is struggling with and would like support on, i guess that's different. that's the problem with this line of thinking, it's not honest imo
It is necessary to grow up to defend yourself against abuse. The only other alternative is to remain in a permanently childish and vulnerable state. Being angry over a fact doesn't make it not a fact.
@@dharmaqueen7877 saying there are only two options is absolutist thinking imo. you want to be vulnerable, that's how you connect with people in a healthy way. but obviously it's a balance
