Suicide rates, depression, and etc with our youth. Why do you think those stats are rising? Is it because of the lack of love from the parents (I mean American as a whole)?

Too much access to wants and not enough needs fulfillment.
Hell, most young music today Rap & Indie music is garnered towards them. I admit, I listen to the shyt myself.

Lack of money/gaining any type of wealth...the ability to support your fam...buy a house...a new car....enjoy life.
Everyday it's a case of being behind the 8-ball on something...
Add social media obsession into the mix...where you have the ability to see the illusion of others around you doing "so well"...or the cats that are really doing it....
It's a bad combination.

no spirititual awareness....but at the same time pop culture is feeding their spirit 
There is no room for being content with life anymore and most of the things we are exposed to are toxic.
Work hard to get a six pack and go on IG and see a dude (
) with an 8 pack 
Buy your dream car
and see someone with a Bugatti 
As far as toxicity goes, I remember as a kid the worst website I could go on was "rotten.com" and see a dead body. That shyt was
. Now, you can see the body of a celebrity 20 minutes after they die just by opening up your phone. We are bombarded with toxic images and it has to effect our brains...you'd be silly to think otherwise.

Social media. Imagine an everyday reminder that there are millions of people out there doing unbelievably better than you. Seeing women you can never attain, men who live the lives you wish you had, etc. That shyt can’t be good for your mental.
Combine this with a vapid existence and you got dynamite.no spirititual awareness....but at the same time pop culture is feeding their spirit

Social media is the #1 factor. People are offended at shyt they would never know existed without it
I also think the effects BABY BOOMER's Greed has had on the country is having a trickle down effect. Inflation, student loans, cost of living, housing market. This shyt affects the quality of life so we cannot mimic our parents and do shyt the way they did it.

Americans have been sold a dream without realizing the amount of work and things youll need to sacrifice to achieve it.
social media and lack of strong family units and spirituality just make it worse. A LOT worse.

Social media is definitely a factor. My lady be on fb looking at everyone bragging about being on vacation and doing this and that. It literally makes her jealous and sad that these people are seemingly living large and having the time of their lives. I hate fb with a passion and have to tell her to put that shyt down.
