How to Protect Your Child's Mental Health from the Dangers of Social Media | Jonathan Haidt


Listen Later

Every tap, like, and scroll on social media is feeding a mental health epidemic—and it’s targeting our youth. In honor of World Mental Health Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness and mobilizing efforts to support mental health worldwide, I'm sitting down with renowned social psychologist and author Jonathan Haidt, PhD to explore the dramatic rise in anxiety and depression among today’s youth. We’ll dive into the evolution of internet culture, the role of food systems in social disruption, and how we can turn the tide on these trends. If you’re concerned about the mental well-being of the next generation, tune in for actionable solutions.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The Rise of Depression and Anxiety in Gen Z
  • The Link Between Social Media and Mental Health
  • The Addictive Nature of Social Media Algorithms
  • The Evolution of the Internet and Its Role in Childhood
  • The Phone-Free Schools Movement
  • The Influence of Ultra-Processed Foods on Mental Health
