Is Australia's social media ban for kids really the solution, or are we just delaying a much bigger conversation?

In this episode, we unpack the impact of social media on kids’ mental health, anxiety, self-esteem, and constant comparison culture. We talk about what life looks like for young people growing up online, and whether banning platforms actually helps or simply pushes behaviour underground.

We also step into the rapidly evolving world of AI. From children forming emotional connections with chatbots to the very real case of a woman who married her AI partner, we ask:
What happens when technology becomes a substitute for human connection?

Are we protecting the next generation or raising them without the skills they’ll need to navigate an AI-driven future?

It’s a raw, honest conversation about parenting, responsibility, tech addiction, loneliness, and where the line should really be drawn.
