Trained Fragility in the Younger Generation

[Chip]

A friend sent me this video of a man explaining quite well what has happened to youth in Western society.

In an effort to make kids safe, by the wrong assumption that they are fragile, they've been deprived of their development. Just in the last several years, mental illness has really taken off among them. They are regressing in a cocoon of emotional safety. It's gotten so extreme that to communicate with them, you must signal continuously your awareness of everyone's emotional frailty.

This is over one hour long, but really explains what we are witnessing:

I only watched a few minutes here, but .... good stuff.

I like how he talks about a Dr who says ... "question your feelings".

In most society today, that is considered horrendous, and bullying and all that. But it's a good and simple idea. You can change your "feelings".
