them sledding and making snow men. it was wonderful day for us here in boston yesterday. you know, i do think overall, the strain of the past two years have been very difficult for the adults and the children. particularly, it s been challenging for our high school children and our middle school students who have had significant isolation and disregulation due to mental health issues. we were fortunate here in boston to add social workers to our teams. we had nurses in every single building. we have our counselling staff and our crisis team that we deploy. we have just a wonderful set of educators here and school leaders who work every single day to make sure our children get what they need. are you do you have a more permanent solution, i guess, at this point? do you anticipate you ll be going into the more classrooms
sure they are not putting people in danger. these stories met that standard. i think it s deeply worrying. when i travelled to australia last year to talk about reporting on me too, i heard from australia jan journn journw constrained they are. they don t have a written statute that protects journalists. it comes down the disregulation of law enforcement. that s a dangerous place. even in the united states where we do have those constitutional protections there s still a certain amount of discretion that prosecutors can exercise and so when you see journalistic activities, for example in the u.s. being prosecuted under the espionage act it s important to look to australia okay we have our first amendment but there s always a danger of criminalizing journalism. has a chilling effect. let s put on the screen a map

get help don t. kay, matthew from a very early age had suffered from depression. he was misdiagnosed, with bipolar and other conditions. in the end, you believe he was correctly diagnosed eventually. yes. with something called. borderline personality disorder. what is that? borderline personality disorder is a pervasive attachment, if you will, to mood swings, suicide ideation. it s a disregulation of emotions. there is usually a lot of difficulty in interpersonal relationships. many times people cut or burn themselves also have borderline personality. it s pervasive meaning it s just really hard to deal with, but there is hope for it. it s hard to imagine all that i ve researched on this with you and your family and matthew, it s hard to imagine anyone who suffers from this kind of illness who has had more love and support from their family
