Ep 7: Smells Like Social Media
In this episode, school counselor and academic consultant Jenny Debevec is going to pry open the vault of what is happening during screen time-- is social media connecting youth or spawning addiction? Is Instagram to blame for your adolescent becoming a narcissist? To what degree are teens capable of monitoring usage themselves? And what DO they want and need from adults in terms of guidelines and assistance?
Featuring reflections by guest students, social media experts, and my very own adolescent, whose phone basically turns into a brick at 9 pm.
