Why do people insist on endlessly proving that "healthy, happy people do things healthy, happy people do" and the inverse?

I agree with the idea in general I guess, but there's nothing here to convince a parent.

Just my data point, my kids are freaking crazy and are slowly becoming less suicidal as they hit elementary school.

We try to educate them about things that are legitimately unsafe, but they would need to fear consequences to actually do what they're told, and we don't really want them acting out of fear.

Who knows what the real numbers are, but I wouldn't try to claim my kids are safer.
