You have no idea what constant peer pressure, gas lighting, and unobtainable beauty standards can do to a young person. I do hope your kid will be able to resist that, but chances are once she is a teenager the situation might be different.

You have no idea

Chances are he's old enough to have been young and knows all about this. At least I do and I was not that dumb. And if you reply that it's worse nowadays, let me teach you about what happened since the 60s...

If you'd elaborate on what you are alluding to in the last sentence, I'd be happy to read it because I have no clue what you are referring to. You mean this kind of stuff was worse in the 60s? Sorry, English isn't my first language and your sentence makes no sense to me.

Flashing and lots and lots of drugs
