Italy’s Authority guaranteeing children and adolescents’ rights released its 2025 Report to Parliament, revealing increasing psychological distress, educational poverty, and loneliness among young people. Presented to the Camera dei deputati, the report underscores the vital role of social connections, care, and adult responsibility. Advocate Marina Terragni warns of a trend towards increasing individualism, potentially leading to a “destiny of loneliness” for children and adolescents in Italy. The report highlights how digital platforms, while offering opportunities, can also exacerbate detachment from reality. Terragni emphasized the need to mitigate the risks associated with technology and harness its positive potential. Crucially, the report calls for strengthened support from families, schools, and institutions to address these issues.
