The responsibility lies with all of us, parents, schools, lawmakers, and tech companies, to act now. Banning phones in schools, enforcing strict age verification, and introducing robust child-safety laws are not optional measures; they are urgent necessities. We cannot afford to wait for another tragedy to spur change. The time to protect our children is today.

Can You Forget Trauma?

Trauma is the emotional and psychological response to an event—or series of events—that overwhelms a person’s ability to cope. It’s not just about what happened, but how it made you feel: unsafe, powerless, or deeply shaken. Trauma can stem from a one-time incident like an accident or loss, or from long-term experiences like abuse, neglect, or living in constant fear.
