13 Reasons Why season 2

Message contains a hyperlink Message contains an image

You may have heard that 13 Reasons Why is releasing the second season this week.

The first season caused a lot of concern and distress from parents, and we had a chat over here about it on the forums. 

 

After the conversation and controversy the first Season sparked, the show has partnered with mental health organisations to provide support and resources. These will hopefully be especially helpful to parents of teens who are wanting to know how to navigate the heavy content of the show - 

These will be available here from Friday onwards. 

 
The show contains very heavy and sensitive content, which was triggering and highly distressing for some people.
However, it also generated important conversation and discussion around getting help for mental health problems. 

What are your thoughts or concerns on this?

We also have some content that might be helpful when navigating not just this show, but other media that might be distressing as well.
