sorry, I think this rules. The biggest stupidest anti vaxxers in the US go around saying, " those covid authoritarians made me have mental issues because I couldn't go to church or restaurants or the gym or online date and I was so victimized." I don't know what they're saying the impact on kids was, but it is also probably being overblown by a media that knows people will pay attention to debates like this
The study just ignored children and teens, which it explicitly notes were most likely to be effected, so it's honestly kind of pointless. I will conveniently ignore that fact when arguing with pro-COVID dipshits though.
Same. I do wonder what the genuine effects on children but I think some parents probably made it worse freaking their kids out about what was being done to them
Childhood poverty did decline during the pandemic, afterward is another story, but at least during the pandemic I could imagine some mental health benefits for kids in addition to the obvious drawbacks.

I imagine the bigger concern is likely the trauma done by COVID (death of parents/family members/friends, long covid, etc).
