Despite the benefits technology brings, the effects on mental health have raised red flags. Research shows a clear link between increased screen time and enormously rising rates of anxiety and depression among children. https://binarybits.blog/is-social-media-ruining-our-kids-the-unforeseen-impact-of-digital-dependence-on-childrens-mental-health/

Yet again I cannot believe how UTTERLY USELESS the NHS in Wales is for children's mental health & neurodiversity. You are basically on your own as far as I can tell. A 2 year waiting list might as well not exist.

The Smile Exam

I’m O.K. at English
I’m O.K. at Maths
But get stressed
when tests
decide
who’s worst
and who’s best

But I’m super at smiling
I’ve love in my laugh
If only the teachers
could test me on that
