You do realize that it's not the kids who are implementing these projects right? This smells of a boomer complaining to kids about the participation trophies that the boomer invented and gave out because they were too weak to have the emotional talk with their kids about winners and losers.

Perhaps, but at the same time, kids are bombarded by social media, "relatable" yet almost engineered influencers, impossible beauty standards, fear of no future, and so on. A breakup may just be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

They have a tough life. I agree they need help since they are young; but they will be shocked when they hit the real world. Life’s not gentle or fair.

Life isn't fair, true, although I believe it's our job to make it fair. But either way I'd rather have them find out later than leave adolescence with a trauma.
