No One Is Talking About the Fact That Kids Keep Aging

There was a time when children explicitly stated that they did not want to grow up.

That messaging has since disappeared. In its absence, we are now observing a clear and measurable outcome: kids are getting older.

It is worth noting that former thought leaders—such as Geoffrey the Giraffe—have largely stopped sticking their necks out on this issue. Since then, the situation has deteriorated.

I am not suggesting direct causation. I am simply asking whether the withdrawal of clear guidance has left a leadership vacuum.

At minimum, this warrants discussion. The numbers don’t speak for themselves.
