Of course, I'm referring to the amount of time I'd be outside playing, running around like
crazy after a ball, on my bike, up a tree, building dens and playing in sand and mud, all whilst sharing each important (to my social, emotional, intellectual and cognitive development, as well as my mental and physical
health)
experience with my mates.
The narrative around violence and mental
health tends to be one of two extremes: «
crazy» people who commit acts of violence, or those who
experience violence because of a mental -
health issue.
