#FridayFact – Minister of Loneliness & a Ban on Best Friends?

This goes in the “You can’t make this stuff up” bucket. The U.K. just appointed a Minister of Loneliness to deal with the results of a study that found over 9 million Brits “often or always feel lonely” according to the NY Times (see http://nyti.ms/2BekEDe). At the same time, a British parenting expert supports a ban on “best friends” in school (see http://dailym.ai/2BeMjDZ).

Hmmm. No best friends and more loneliness. Could there by a correlation? I’d love to hear what you have to say about it!
