Charity blames social media for rise in children self-harming
Social media is helping fuel a nation of "deeply unhappy" children, a British charity has warned, as it published new figures showing a rise in self-harm.
Data obtained under the UK's Freedom of Information Act by the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) found 18,778 children aged 11 to 18 were admitted to hospital for self-harm in 2015/16.
