Current evidence seems to sugges that this is very harmful for children (which we’re having less of anyways). The long term trend is concerning. Western democracies can’t be sustained by a population which is getting dumber and more criminal, and that’s naturally the outcome of a society which has less and less of a priority on having children and raising them well.
Good news then, criminality rates are going down. In particular youth violent criminality. Kids also drink less, get hooked on drugs less and get less pregnant as teenagers.
Theres basically a lag in these statistics. You won’t see what’s happening now until it’s progressed further, and then another 15 years for the children born under those circumstances to grow up. And violent crime is actually beginning to rise again since 2016 IIRC, so I wouldn’t hold on to the idea that we’re going to be at this all time low for violent crime for much longer.
The generation whose parents divorced is already grown. The data about them are known and counted in those data. Lag already passed. There was no surge of divorces in 2000 either.
You do realise that by not conditioning on polyamory to derive that rate, you make the same mistake this OP is chastising? Additionally without a link to the data?
You can see that suicide rates peaked a few years after the change in divorce laws, but it is ticking up again. Highest ever for females.
So we now have kids who don't do much besides social media and are depressed/suicidal. My theory as to why female suicide has ticked up: their self esteem has cratered due to the tits-and-ass parade on social media.
That is odd take-away from graph that shows suicide problem being rather small among females - and going up at exactly same time as when males suicide went up. Also while males suicides went up more. With both genders coinciding with bad economy.
Nevertheless, the youth is not still overall better behaved then previous generations, for all the complaining about social media.
Frankly, it just seems that you hate women so much, that you don't see man standing next to her who clearly need more help.
