Many different things impact a child’s life growing up. Their upbringing: what kind of parents they had, how they were treated by their peers, what socioeconomic status their household was in, and more. However, one often overlooked impact on a child’s personality or behaviour is their name.

These days, children are gaining internet access quicker, easier, and earlier than ever before. This has led to worrying questions for parents with children who are “chronically online”: what dangers would the internet pose to their child’s mental and physical well-being? Would it teach them all sorts of terrible things that would be irreversible, and cause them to become dangerous and reckless?

From the beginning of time, people have been hopping in on trends just to gain social respect/recognition. We’ve all seen it before. Rainbows in app logos, shirts, pencil cases. Some forms of #BlackoutTuesday. Performative activists don’t understand the purpose of activist trends, and don’t do any actual advocation for intended social change of the movement. Individuals are guilty of it, corporations are guilty as well, and more.

Most people living in societies today are experiencing larger and larger gaps between older and younger generations. Typically, older folks complain the younger generation has it easy, with privileges they would have never dreamed of when they were young: technology, more opportunities, access to education, and more. Younger people protest that older folks never had to deal with all the problems they have to today, and conclude that all elderly people are “boomers” and out of touch with reality.

Scroll through any form of social media, and eventually, the algorithm will direct you to a post regarding current events. Usually, the content of these posts varies: from a celebrity’s upcoming wedding, or the state of foreign affairs in Canada, these messages are not limited in their scope of coverage nor the amount of people they reach.
