Back to School Blues: Raising Resilient Kids In A Digital World
from Why Do People Do That? · host Stacy Pellettieri, LCSW and Heather Harten. LCSW
Social media isn’t just a distraction; it’s shaping how our kids see themselves, handle conflict, and form relationships. As they head back to school, it’s not enough to pack their backpacks. We need to equip them emotionally and mentally to navigate the digital world. In this essential episode, I break down how to help your kids build real resilience, set healthy boundaries, and handle the pressures of online life before they walk back into those school hallways. This isn’t a “nice to know”; it’s a “must know.” Join us!
