If you are like me and want to make sure you are setting your kids (and yourself!) up for success with boundaries and conversations around social media with your kids, then this episode is for you! What are the effects you have seen from social media on kids? I am a data girl so give me all your data! I want to delay when my child is involved with social media, but their friends are on it, my child feels left out, and so now I feel like the bad parent. Do you have words of advice? What can I do now to prepare my kids for the future where social media is so prevalent? And for the parents who's kids are already in the thick of social media, what can they do right now for their kids? Most of my listeners and followers want to know when is the appropriate time to allow your child access to a smartphone or social media? How do you know when they are ready? Dr. Alison Yeung is a family physician from Ontario, Canada. Over the past decade, she has come to recognize that children are struggling in unprecedented ways. After recognizing the role that screens and social media are playing in their presentation, she began to dive into the research on this topic. Feeling that there is an undeniable association, she felt compelled to speak out. She has created an Instagram account to educate and empower parents to change the narrative, and has also worked with local schools to help implement cellphone policies by educating staff and parents.
