<p>Biggest Joke is that Haringey does Not seem to Enforce Parking Around its Schools. They All have Valid Parking Restrictions</p>
<p>Would have thought that they would have Also put living Barriers around All Schools to Aid Pollution reduction. If Councillors Really cared for its Borough's Youngsters / Future</p>

<p>Don’t confuse normal teenage behaviour such as rebellion, anger, or being introverted with depression or romanticise it as a gateway to creativity. It is a crippling sometimes lifelong illness. </p>

<p>Of course I’m not against modern life. I live in a city, I use modern technology as I’m doing to write this. I’m very much a creature of the modern age and can’t abide nostalgia. I also believe that as a species we have no choice but to change our current wasteful, polluting, live in the moment and damn the future lifestyles. Maybe an idealist who believes that urban life can be different and better for us all but certainly not someone who believes the past was better. I have studied history, I lived through the punk years, the goth years - the past was grim as hell for most people, as a species we tend to only remember the “good bits”. I don’t want to go back. There is only forward. </p> Alcoholism starts in local pu…tag:harringayonline.com,2018-12-20:844301:Comment:11407702018-12-20T20:22:03.796Zkotkashttps://harringayonline.com/profile/AsenTsvyatkov

<p>Liz, I can't help but feel that you are very much against modern life. This is based on your posts on here.</p>
<p>depression is a difficult thing and to pin it on pm2.5 matter is a gross over simplification that I feel best meets your agenda based upon posts on the forum.</p>

<p>Teen depression gave rise to the punk movement in the 1970's after all. Followed by new wave, then indie, then goth grindcore, to nu-metal......</p>

<p>That may work for some communities and not others although they do often have their own social hubs. </p>
<p>There is no shortage of pubs in this area and as a local parent I know that local parents do socialise together as do their children, but this is not necessarily enough to prevent teen depression, so I’m not sure your argument that the root cause of it is solely family isolation.

<p>There is no shortage of pubs in this area and as a local parent I know that local parents do socialise together as do their children, but this is not necessarily enough to prevent teen depression, so I’m not sure your argument that the root cause of it is solely family isolation. Depression manifests itself in other ways than seeking to withdraw from groups nor when we talk about teenage depression are we talking solely about loneliness. During my years working with teens, depression was also often expressed through self-harm, abuse of substances including alcohol and violent behaviour often with parents struggling to support them. It is certainly worth exploring the links between a toxic physical environment and the increase in teenage depression. </p>
