Are young people less resilient these days than past generations? Does the increased availability and awareness of mental health support help young people? Or are young people being held back by overbearing adults who are ‘democratising’ parenting? 

All to discuss with our panel this morning. Joining Pat was Siobhán O’Neil White of Mums.ie, Newstalk researcher Meghan O’Halloran, who’s in her early 20s and also Brendan Kelly Professor of Psychiatry at Trinity College Dublin, and Consultant Psychiatrist at Tallaght University Hospital.
