But I really really really donât agree with the explanation for murder being because someone was banned from social media or didnât play outside enough, so of course theyâre gonna go murdering?! Youâre right about one thing though, these kids are growing up in families where no one cares about them. The parents are disinterested in what the kid is doing socially, where they are at 3am on a Tuesday, if they are doing ok in school, if the 10 knives and 3 machetes the kid has in their bedroom seems normal. The kids themselves are motivated by approval of their peers, kudos, and no repercussions. I donât know what the answer is.

I donât mean thereâs a direct link between the social media ban and attacks like these, more that so much effort is spent legislating kids out of public life instead of finding ways to engage with them
