"If you think about all of the groups that got crunched during Covid - teens got the worst. What makes teenage years special - it’s all about friends, it’s all about figuring out where you are in the larger social context of the world, you realize that your family is one unit but there are lots of other units out there and where do you belong? So teens have this internal need, biological push to leave the nest and go find a social group plus they have their sexuality coming in".
