I do feel free. About 40 percent. [...] I can see my friends virtually. I mostly feel like I’ve seen them when I see them virtually. [...] I do most of the things I did before, even if it’s in electronic settings. I have an electronic freedom.

We’re learning to how to wash our hands in 2020 while we were expecting flying cars.

I think things are going to change after this. I think everything will be restricted.

I’m worried that COVID-19 won’t disappear.

‘If we had to live like this for a whole year, maybe we would need the help of a physicologist.’

I don’t like being in 10 square meters for more than a month. Moreover I can’t stand my parents and my sister is foul. All the homework stresses me out. I miss going out with my friends.

‘We go around thinking everything is going to be okay, that our lives will turn out good, that nothing special will happen but we don’t think about what the alternative is. We don’t think about what could happen if world war 3 starts, if someone very essential in our live dies, .... if a new disease kills a lot of humans and makes us stay at home for months. Maybe something little may cause the biggest twist in your life, we can’t know what will happen, so don’t take anything for granted. Life isn’t insured.’

‘I think adults are coping OK, but they are a bit stressed.’

‘[If I had to live like this for a year] I would die from fatal boredom.’

‘I have to be like an adult: no running, no shouting, I need to walk with normal stems, and be practically sitting down.’

‘Why have my rights been taken away but not my responsibilities?’

‘My plans have all been cancelled and I was really looking forward to them.’

‘What would you like to do the first day you are allowed out freely? “I’ll go out into nature and I’ll run so fast that nobody will be able to see me”’

‘[I am worried that] all the people who are ill and fighting to survive the virus won’t make it and that the doctors who are attending to them might also get sick’

How can I create the illusion of outdoors indoors? ¡[Biel’s drawing] is based on true events. Biel made himself a house with cushions and blankets and that way when he came out, he had the feeling that he was going outdoors. He put a film on the TV and felt like he’d gone to the cinema.’

‘What I would ask a psychologist is how people with disabilities or mental problems or communication problems… How can they cope with this situation?’

‘I understand it's well-meaning and they are trying to keep children happy but to say "everything will be OK", "everything will be OK", "everything will be OK" is not very useful to me because NOT everything will be OK. Not everything is OK! People are dying, so no, not everything is OK. Of course, things might improve eventually, but this is going to affect the following months, years. And, I don't know. Not everything will be OK. And this is a message some people believe MUST be conveyed to kids. But there should be no lies. It's important to tell the truth. 'I hope you are well', 'I hope you are having as good a time as possible'. But not that everything's going to be OK because it's not.’
