Listen, I have two degrees. The first is a B.S. in Psychology with a Neuroscience emphasis, and the other is a B.A. in Cognitive Science. And anecdotally, I also have two children. I only state that so we can skip past all the talk of “bigotry”, and “stupid and annoying” generalizations. It doesn’t matter that we can’t compare to children 50 years ago, if we acknowledge that “x” has an impact on children and that “y%” of children are exposed to “x”, isn’t the outcome the same?
For fucks sake, it takes a psychologist to be a pedant idiot on the internet against another psych. I also have a Bachelors in psychology and a Master in sociology. And as my doctorate tutor likes to say during debates when people throw credentials around as if they mean something to basic facts and science, “do you have an argument or are you just interested in comparing dick sizes?”

I was just responding to your statement about “people who dont know jack about psychology”, so that we could have a more informed discussion. 🙂
