Rachael Casella lost her daughter Mackenzie when she was just seven months old. And she refuses to put a trigger warning on her daughter’s life for reasons that may surprise you. Victoria Bridgland is an academic and researcher at Flinders University who has studied the effects and impact of trigger warnings - and her findings may surprise you.
