    They are definitely guilty of child abuse of some sort.
    Are you sure? From what I've read, it was her that got her parents on board with radical global warming activism. She bullied her dad into giving up meat, for instance.

    Her life story makes obvious that she is deeply mentally ill to begin with (and I am by no means talking about Asperger's).

      Someone said she was mentally ill, which begs the question as to why the UN would invite a mentally disturbed child to speak.

        Interesting considering that I'm pretty sure that I read that her parents have been a part of the environmental activist community for quite some time

          We do need to be careful not to move into the category of implying that people with mental illnesses don't bring anything to the table or are somehow "tainted" to the point where they can be cast aside.

          We can do this and still rightly maintain that this child lacks the qualifications to be a worldwide spokesperson on scientific issues.

            Except a mental illness may help explain her emotional meltdown.

                Giving in to your mentally ill child's potentially self-destructive demands is potentially significant neglect. Heck, letting you normal kid run the show is dereliction of parental duty.

                      I don't actually begrudge the elevation of a non-specialist, practically speaking, because the general public doesn't care about what scientists have to say, broadly speaking.

                      The notion that she has more skin in the game than a 70-80 year old politician or business mogul who will be dead before society supposedly falls apart is not illogical. Along similar lines, I think it will require youth to speak up about the national debt, because your average Senator will be dead before it truly matters.
