172 Tik Tok Brain

from Truth Untangled · host Bob Anders, Ph.D.

Kids and teens are spending more time than ever before scrolling through TikTok, which has become one of the most popular social media platforms in the world. Anecdotal evidence and preliminary research suggest that this may be hindering the development of young people's brains and making it more difficult for them to concentrate on other activities. If parents want to lessen the negative effects of using TikTok, they should openly discuss the risks with their children and make sure that they spend their days doing things other than watching TV or scrolling through social media.
