Do you think the staff at Eton are more experienced and of a higher caliber than Moss Side Comprehensive? Or not.

Certainly true a few years ago, but less so now, mental issues are slowly becoming less of a badge of shame in most of the UK.
More like a badge of honour with every council kid having ADHD and parents that are proud of it.

No longer do people feel a bit down, or a little sad today. It's full on mental health issues.

Why would being a "higher calibre" of maths teacher (or whatever) who teaches people who are better off than the kids at Moss Side Comprehensive mean that you're better at recognising and dealing with mental health issues?

Private schools have smaller class sizes and better teachers than average, and indeed Eton is well above the average. Eton has also been around since 1400's so they have evolved and are a smooth operation.

They also focus on producing 'rounded individuals' rather than just exam passers. I mean look at Harry, D in Geography and signing multiple multi million pound deals wink

It that's how it is how that's a good thing but it doesn't mean it's how it was then or that people don't slip through the net.

So far we've had that he must be fine because look how bad the people taking part in the Invictus games have had it and he must be fine because he went to a good school.

Quite remarkable really.

Yes. In the UK, a primary member of the Royal Family will be on no ones radar and will 'slip through the net'.

yes And it also suggests that a person's schooling the main part of their mental health. I'd have thought that being part of a royal family and having your mother die whilst being followed by paparazzi is more important.

Funny how William has also spoken about it.

Prince William opens up about mental health pressures

Ask yourself if anyone you knew came to you and said they were struggling if you'd really start quizzing them on the school they went to and if you'd ask them why they were complaining when there are plenty of people who have it far worse.

I'd like to think the answer is that you wouldn't so ask yourself why that's what you're doing where this lad is concerned.

He is the future king, he had a lot more pressure on his shoulders.

Harry was just the spare. He could spend his time partying in Las Vegas.

I'll take that to mean that if someone came to you that you wouldn't ask them that.

Thought not.

At some not immediate point in assisting them, yes I would ask them to think relatively.

"Look Meghan, I know your passport is with the PA who organizes your trips, but if you really want it back, ask for it. Then take your private jet to wherever your baby shower is this time.

Yes some random people last week didn't ask how you were, but can't you just post on your Instagram or DM Oprah or Venus Williams or any other mates"

You actually edited it to add in more bile.

Maybe ask yourself what he's done to you to make you this way.

is that a euphemism for something that happened at a swingers party?
