Are we fully grasping the cultural currents shaping our youth's physical and mental health?
Young people have never been so anxious and depressed, in this episode I begin to delve into the many factors that I believe are contributing to these issues. I don't know it all and I don't have all the answers, however I believe it is important we start talking about these issues; even if that means discussing hot topics. I believe we learn from talking things out; not shutting down speech which is popular today.
Embark on an important journey with me, as I begin a deep dive into the societal forces impacting the well-being of gen Z. The digital realm our children inhabit is a far cry from the playgrounds of past generations. I discuss various social media platforms including TikTok and Tumblr, you will be surprised about the differences between TikTok in China and the Western world.
I discuss how smart phones and social media really work against your children; and touch on some of what they are really doing and seeing online. I also venture into the influence activists are having on our youth and the how compassion can be toxic.
Many don't want to get involved in the culture wars however, they are coming for you and particularly your children whether you like it or not.
The books I refer to in this episode are:
- We've Got Issues: How You Can Stand Strong for America's Soul and Sanity by Dr Phillip C. McGraw
- Bad Therapy: Why the Kids Aren't Growing Up by Abigail Shrier
