This country's youth named Europe's unhappiest. How does it compare?

"The findings from The Good Childhood Report 2024 are alarming and illustrate an unacceptable picture of children's wellbeing in the UK. It clearly shows that young people in the UK are experiencing lower well-being and life satisfaction compared to their peers across Europe, and that the well-being of young people is also in decline," Jack O'Neill, policy and public affairs manager at The Children's Society, told Euronews Health.

"The UK reported the highest level of low life satisfaction among young people, with 25.2 per cent indicating dissatisfaction, followed closely by Poland (24.4 per cent) and Malta (23.6 per cent)."

"On average, 16.6 percent of European youth are dissatisfied with their lives, which is equivalent to about one in six across the continent."

"The report used data from various sources to analyse youth life satisfaction, including the UK Longitudinal Household Survey, The Children's Society's annual survey, and the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA)."
