Part of this set are @Livingstone_S & Kim Sylwander, who question if age limits are the best way to protect children online. They argue that these arbitrary rules ignore children's views and evidence about children's development and well-being. (2/7) tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

I was reading Blashfield et al. (2014) 'The Cycle of Classification: DSM-I Through DSM-5' today and made a plot of the increasing numbers of diagnostic categories defined in each edition of the DSM over the years—quadrupling from 128 in DSM-I (1952) to 544 in DSM-5-TR (2022):
A plot of the number of diagnostic categories defined in each edition of the DSM that shows increases primarily in disorders with diagnostic criteria (or a prose description) from DSM-I to DSM-III-R, and then increases primarily in disorders without diagnostic criteria from DSM-III-R to DSM-5-TR.

1 in 7 adolescents live with a #MentalHealth condition. Without adequate support, these conditions can have long-lasting effects on their education, relationships, and overall well-being. We’re calling on countries to invest in effective age-appropriate mental health services for young people and to address barriers to care. bit.ly/4gX4GSS
