Scrolling 2 Death

The Choking Game: A Deadly Trend (with Judy Rogg)


Listen Later

Even smart kids make bad decisions; decisions that can take their life.


This was the case for Judy's son, Erik, who died in 2010 from the choking game. Devastatingly, this trend has since exploded due to social media algorithms which prioritize harmful content into childrens' feeds.


In this vulnerable and educational conversation, Judy tells Erik's story and guides parents on how to protect our children from dangerous challenges and other online harms.
