Have you watched "Adolescence" on Netflix?

Finished last night and it was a really good.
A few things that made it a little tough was the way they would do a continuous shot. It seemed they would fill the scene with meaningless jiberish just to move the filming to a new person. I feel there was a lot of wasted time of nothing. Also at about the middle of the second episode I had to turn on the subtitles. The last episode I couldn't make out anything they were saying without the subtitles.
 
I just watched this last night. I'm convinced this was a cautionary tale for Gen z and millennial parents because my Gen X ass thought it was weak... Maybe it's because I don't have young kids anymore.

Was I supposed to be shocked that there's hidden internet language? That there is internet bullying? That the internet is radicalizing our children? And I'm not buying the whole toxic male masculinity angle either...

Maybe I'm just salty...
 
Had a talk with my kids (9,12 now)letting them know that there will be 0 social media and free range internet until they’re 18. We have to have kids that come over not be on their phone (unbelievable the amount of parents have no restrictions on the internet whatsoever).
 
Finally saw it this weekend - Meh

So who killed the girl? Even though she was probably horrible with her online "gossip", that's all it was. Those boys were SOFT little pussies, watch out for the real world when you don't live under mom and dads roof anymore. The only person i feel for is the girl and her family.

If that boy was a "Good" kid, well no he wasn't. Him and his little shitbag buddies did bad stuff online, like many teen boys do and finally got caught up in their BS and resulted in killing another person.

Let that kid rot in Prison - there are real consequences when yore little fantasy online world drips over into reality.


That was a huge fuck up, you can love your son and not accept who they became. Brief moment? I'm not so sure, that kind evil comes from deep inside a person. Side not, Dad was not great, all he could see is his little boy, you have to see the man yore son is becoming, he didn't - shame on him.
