New Epstein files have dropped. This time, the US government have released somewhere around 3 million documents, including videos, photos, and audio files surrounding the investigation into the convicted American pedofile Jeffery Epstein. Some of these files are incredibly graphic descriptions of sexual abuse, often by famous/powerful people. And they cast a wide net of people. From politicians, to celebrities, to various foreign family members. It seems to show that the upper echelons of our societies are corrupt to a previously unthought of level. And yet, apart from Epstein and his long time girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, there have been no arrests, and no punishments. 

Democrats are shouting that it proves Trump is a pedophile. While Republicans are saying it proves Trump's innocence and shows how disgusting Democrats are. 

While the average American generally seems to want all people involved jailed.

And there is the conspiracy that Epstein isn't even dead, and that it appears the body that was removed from his jail cell was not his body, but someone who looked similar to him.

How was these huge social network allowed to continue for decades with seemingly no repercussions? Why is no one actually doing anything?

A recent report from the UK found that nearly a third of kids starting school are unable to eat and drink independently, are not toilet trained, and are unable to use books (trying to swipe them like a phone or tablet). This is not a unique UK problem though. This is increasingly becoming a problem across the world. Teachers and schools are blaming screen time. They’re specifically saying that excessive screen time for both children and parents is becoming a problem.  Parent's now are using their phones instead of paying attention to their kids. In fact, many young parents now say they don't like reading to their kids. However, they also say they want the government to do more to make their kids ready for school.

But what do you think is the problem? And what could be the solution? Is this a family/societal problem? Should the government be getting involved? Or is this another chance for the government to control people even more?
