Social Media Use and Teens
I really enjoyed this series and listened to much of it with my own teens. My 16-year old got his first phone this year and we still do not allow social media. In the 8 months that he has had it his IRL hobbies have drastically reduced. He has also struggled with anxiety and depression. When I look at the teen suicide rate and how it has jumped since the inception of the smart phone I do have wonder about the correlation and the lack of action by our government and corporations. During covid around 1600 children under the age of 17 died but teen suicide rates take 6000 children a year, a number that has doubled since the smart phone. Our entire country went on lock down for Covid but smartphones are handed out to children in elementary grades. I just don’t get it… I know causation does not always equal correlation but I do wonder why it is treated so lightly by parents and is allowed to go unchecked.
