abstract="Since the COVID-19 pandemic took hold in the first quarter of 2020, children and  their families across the world have experienced extraordinary changes to the way  they live their lives - creating enormous practical and psychological challenges for  them at many levels. While some of these effects are directly linked to  COVID-related morbidity and mortality, many are indirect - due rather to  governmental public health responses designed to slow the spread of infection and  minimise the numbers of deaths. These have often involved aggressive programmes of  social distancing and quarantine, including extended periods of national social and  economic lockdown, unprecedented in the modern age. Debates about the  appropriateness of these measures have often referenced their potentially negative  impact on people's mental health and well-being - impacts which both opponents and  advocates appear to accept as being inevitable.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
