This is certainly true. I have raised this concern, and the response (both here and elsewhere) has typically been variations of "Wear a mask and shut up you spoiled brat". You underestimate the collateral damage from 2 years of nonstop fearmongering, threats, shaming, and draconian rules at your own peril.

Funny you mention rock climbing..My daughter who lives in Boston is now a gym rat.
I describe her as a female version of Sheldon from Big Bang. She is a tunneling and transportation engineer.. Very few friends but has found a outlet in rock climbing and skiing..

My daughter became a much better climber after getting talked into being a volunteer for the Adaptive Team at Central Rock Gym. Her dorm parents at her boarding school in Waltham were climbers. So she could get a ride some Friday evenings. That's when she started working on 5.10/5.11 routes. Still good friends with a couple of the adult members of the team.

We're working on getting her BF on skis again while they are still in the NC mountains. Although he's more interested in trying snowboarding after an hour on skis at Big SNOW. Hoping to get out there to Cataloochee using my Indy pass some weekend.

Sno…..I sincerely doubt that he was referring to having to wear a mask or the fearmongering and such that affects everyone, not just young people. If that is the most severe impact that the last two years has had on you life you are very lucky.
 
Thanks all for the feedback I knew I posted this in the right forum. You guys are all really cool.

David and I are going skiing again tomorrow at Plattekill. Let's get back to Belleayre conditions now.
