  • Young people in the SiS homes apparently have access to social media. Restrictions are individual which is strange. Surely there should be the same restrictions for everyone who sits in a SiS home

    exchange email3

    Hello! It may be good to consider that those who are admitted to Sis homes are far from always serious criminals, so completely removing phones and access to social media for all residents may be difficult. However, according to Sis, you can decide on restrictions for individual young people.

  • If Erdogan wins again, is the NATO process over for good then…?

    Sound cannon

    No I do not think so. Several experts believe that Sweden will become a member of NATO sooner or later – anything else would have damaged Turkey’s relations with other Western countries too much.

    On the other hand, the risk for Sweden if Erdogan wins is that Swedish NATO membership will be further delayed, writes Aftonbladet’s foreign policy commentator Wolfgang Hansson.

  • So are Cyclones only dangerous for children?

    Dennis

    Hey Dennis! Of course not, but it was Rädda Barnen, which focuses its work on precisely children who expressed their concern about the cyclone. Children may also be considered even more vulnerable than adults as they do not have the same ability to protect themselves as fully grown people.
