Tech and Teens: Unraveling the Impact with Dr. Lisa Strohman

We're going to have to figure out how do we have a positive interface that supports our psychology with technology versus harms it.
Ever wondered how technology shapes your child's mind? Dr. Lisa Strohman, founder of Digital Citizen Academy, joins Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen to tackle this pressing issue. They dive into how tech companies use neuroscience to hook kids early on, turning their products into a necessity rather than a choice. Dr. Strohman sheds light on simple yet effective strategies, like switching your phone to grayscale, to reduce its allure and help avoid attention hijack.
The conversation gets real about the darker side of social media, especially its impact on teenage girls' mental health, contributing to feelings of inferiority and even rising suicide rates. But it’s not all doom and gloom; they also discuss practical tips for setting boundaries and monitoring screen time to foster healthier tech habits. This episode is a must-listen for parents looking to navigate the digital landscape responsibly and safeguard their children's well-being.
