One of my former colleagues, a teacher, said, "I just let the kids take the lead on this stuff."

How's that working out?

This is heartbreaking. This young girl is around the same age as my son. Just ... feel hopeless for children growing up today. I truly hope she gets over this stuff and finds her way back to sanity.😕

Honestly letting children use the internet was a mistake.

Thirteen? You've got to be kidding me.

Tell me your parents abused you without telling me they abused you 😅

They likely didn't abuse him at all. He's likely being groomed online, and they're completely in the dark.

It’s generally a little column A and a little column B. Kids with dysfunctional relationships with their parents (which can take many different forms) are a hell of a lot more vulnerable to this stuff and are also more likely to spend time in odd places online where they come in contact with it.

I’m caught between thinking it’s likely not a real 13 y/o and more likely an older LARPing male creep or a To Catch a Predator style honeypot, to also thinking this is the kind of dumb shit that bored 13-year-olds do.

Why tho

BPD is not diagnosed until adulthood and why do these kids think they want it? Borderline people are nothing but annoying navel gazers.
