Social Media: Friend or Foe?

from Practical Parenting · host GBMC HealthCare

About 95% of U.S. teens today use some type of social media, and about a third say they use it "almost constantly," according to the Pew Research Center. Teens are also undergoing a mental health crisis, where suicide, depression and loneliness are on the rise. At this point, research shows these two are linked. How do we teach our kids to be detectives? How do we set boundaries for our kids around social media use? Dr. Terry Nguyen, Chair of Pediatrics at GBMC HealthCare, and co-host Krystina Wales, discuss how parents can manage and navigate the social terrain.
