We developed a 'Speak Charter' for young people. To support them to have conversations which aim to deepen understanding of each other's viewpoints. These are skills they need to develop. It's ok to disagree.

Conversations with differing viewpoints help people figure out: who they are what they think what they feel is important how to manage challenging emotions & interact well with others This is what Charlie Kirk did.

Teenagers have been led to believe what they need is to feel comfortable all the time. If they believe this then any discomfort becomes unbearable. A more inspiring belief is: I can do hard things. That's why we're: Not The Easy Way
Lots of teenagers I work with are under the misapprehension that there are all these golden people out there living golden lives. They have NO IDEA that distress is part of the human condition

If you disagree with someone, ask questions. If you get a response, listen. If views make you uncomfortable, ask yourself why. If you start name-calling, take a breath. Don't intimidate. Don't kill. Don't celebrate their death. A good man was killed because of bigotry. RIP.
I saw this video this morning on my feed and I think it so eloquently explains what Charlie Kirk was put on this earth to do. “When people stop talking, that’s when you get violence, that is when civil war happens”

Adolescence misses the mark. An unpopular opinion perhaps, but nonetheless the importance that politicians and broadcasters are placing on this fictional drama is, I believe, misplaced. Yes, its one-shot structure is brilliantly directed by Phillip Barantini and Stephen Graham

@Keir_Starmer With respect Prime Minister, policy should be informed by sober research, not highly emotive performance art, no matter how powerful the acting is. Here’s some incel research we conducted with support from @CommissionCE and presented to the @CommonsWEC. https://t.co/YeYN61Yup0
gov.uk
This is the largest survey of incels to-date, taken across the UK and the US. It explores their demographics, beliefs, networks and propensity to violence.

In what sense is Adolescence a "bit too real"? There simply has not been an epidemic of manosphere inspired violence like depicted in the show (unlike something like Drill music, for example). Jamie is neither typical of knife crime in the UK, nor indeed fans of the manosphere
'My son was subjected to quite bad bullying, he had to evacuate his class...' As Adolescence becomes available to watch in secondary schools, safeguarding worker Claire tells @NickFerrariLBC that the show felt 'a bit too real'.

The knee-jerk reaction to a fictional series is the antithesis of our Magnificent Boys Project Demonise Assume negative intent Elevate negative role models Tell boys what to think vs Encourage strength See positive potential Elevate positive role models Explore views
Netflix's hit show Adolescence is to be shown in secondary schools, the government has confirmed. But will airing the hit series in schools go any way to tackling misogyny and violence in boys and young men?

Why do so many psychologists now advocate for validation+avoidance in place of psychological exploration & formulation? Because it appears compassionate in the moment. Prioritising your own self-image above the long-term needs of your clients is far from compassionate.

"A shift away from the traditional role of mental health care, which is to help individuals work through psychological struggles rather than avoid them." True for gender confusion. True for most psychological distress. Avoidance leads to long-term distress.
Are we truly treating gender dysphoria, or are we merely avoiding its deeper psychological pain? The prevailing affirmation model, while well-intentioned, risks sidestepping the complex struggles at the heart of this condition. @Transgendertrd @segm_ebm @Hilary_Cass @genspect

Freedom of speech was not explicitly stated as a 'British Value' in schools when the Prevent strategy was introduced. If you only promote vague notions of tolerance and respect without the counterbalance of free speech, you end up teaching children to quietly tolerate anything.
JD Vance went to the Munich Security Conference and roasted the entire continent of Europe for being petty tyrants and criminalizing freedom of speech, including a British man arrested for praying at an abortion clinic.

Challenge yourself this holiday season: engage with someone you might not normally connect with. Find just one thing you have in common. Even if it feels like a small moment, I guarantee it plants a seed. Small, incremental steps can unravel misconceptions and spark profound

Yeah, we probably shouldn't be teaching them the mental habits of anxious & depressed people under the theory that will help inspire them save the world. It's just making them miserable & alienated.
GenZ 12th graders are more pessimistic about the world than any generation in decades. This corresponds with rates of anxiety and depression that are also through the roof.
