Adolescence - Netflix

I have seen the drama yet, but there's already a thread on this topic.

Thank you - I did look but missed it. Will read with interest

It’s a brilliant piece of acting from all involved. Thought provoking and so realistic that it takes your breath away. Directors, producers, actors just clear a spacefor BAFTAs etc.

I watched the first episode, but found it really upsetting. I don't know if I can watch the rest.

I think it's every parent's nightmare to think of your child doing something heinous; you think you've raised them well and it's not possible for them to do something like this.

Awful- very well acted but so depressing. As are so many series these days.

It was truly brilliant the best drama I ve see in years Stephen Graham never fails the is such a wonderful actor

I thought we all discussed this at the time Oh yep just read the post above there was a thread ptrevipusly

Maybe you haven't noticed that life is awful for many young boys these days with the dark side of social media and the internet all to easily available.

No, I hadn’t noticed. But then I live in a different place in a bubble of happiness.

Then aren't you fortunate. Not everyone can say that and often through no fault of their own.

Certainly. I am lucky.

I just read the other thread regarding this show, and I think it confirmed my resolve not to watch the rest of the series. Too upsetting for me.

I have grandchildren, not yet teens, and worry how they will make it through their teen years with the influence of social media.
