Sissy and David unpack five things kids need culturally right now: conversation (parents as the calm, safe first source), protection in the real world (body-safety skills and wise supervision), online protection (tools + ongoing check-ins), critical thinking (helping kids evaluate what they see and hear), and a spiritual foundation (identity, hope, and guidance). Their main point: culture will shape kids—but intentional parents can shape them more.

Our mothers and grandmothers also worried about beauty, and friendships, and boys.What is new, however, is the role of technology in teenage anxiety. We see an inflection point in the early 2010s: a sudden drop in mental wellbeing among teenagers, particularly girls. The beginning of that drop coincided with the arrival of image-based social media like Instagram.My guest today argues that this was not a coincidence. Freya India is the author of the Substack GIRLS, where she writes about the challenges girls and young women face in the modern world. She's also a staff writer for Jonathan Haidt's newsletter, After Babel.Her new book is about the ways in which communication technology has given us a world in which teenage girls end up commodifying themselves – selling their lives on social media, advertising themselves on dating apps, and packaging themselves into personal brands. All at the cost of their own sanity. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Introducing the newest thing in higher (and we really mean higher — like look UP) education: The Flying Pig Academy. A dream of The Village Square (with support from Florida Humanities) for many years, it's finally aloft. The division in American society is big and seems impossible at times to address. The Flying Pig Academy is kind of an insider's how to. Spending two decades trying to build trust between people who don't look or think alike changes you. It's been like a stereogram where a whole different way of understanding the world pops out at you, like a second picture hidden inside the first one you see. We were beginning to understand these alternative ways of viewing the world when Dr. Jonathan Haidt wrote his groundbreaking book "The Righteous Mind" advancing Moral Foundations Theory as a way to explain differences across the political divide. Then we were off to the races. This is a conversation about what we learned. Mentioned: Jonathan Haidt, author of The Righteous Mind Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks piece: The Keys to Understanding American anti-Semitism—and fighting back The Rise and Fall of European Meritocracy, Ivan Krastev, New York Times.

In this episode of the Helping Families Be Happy Podcast, host Christopher Robbins speaks with award-winning author Jessica Spear about the critical challenges of social media and AI safety for teens and preteens. They discuss the irrefutable data showing how social media is negatively impacting youth mental health, the emerging concerns around AI companions and chatbots that teens are using for emotional support, and practical strategies parents can implement to protect their children. Jessica emphasizes the importance of ongoing conversations, coming from a place of curiosity rather than judgment, and creating family tech plans together. The discussion highlights that while technology offers benefits, current platforms lack adequate safety guardrails for young users, making parental engagement essential. Episode Highlights 00:00:10: Christopher introduces the podcast and welcomes guest, Jessica Spear, an award- winning author specializing in books for preteens and teens about friendships, safety, and technology use. 00:01:47: Jessica thanks Christopher for the introduction and expresses enthusiasm about tackling the important topic of social media and AI safety for young people. 00:01:56: Christopher praises Jessica's book "The Phone Book" and recommends it for every family with children who have smartphones. 00:02:03: Jessica explains that while her book is written for preteens and early teens, it's really for all families and encourages parents to read it alongside their children to facilitate conversations about navigating technology. 00:02:26: Christopher references Jonathan Haidt's book "The Anxious Generation" and notes that global statistics show teens and preteens are suffering due to social media abuse, then asks Jessica what parents need to know to help children stay safe. 00:03:01: Jessica acknowledges the nerve-wracking nature of parenting in the tech age and emphasizes that helping kids navigate technology is one of the biggest parenting challenges today, requiring lots of conversations starting early and happening often. 00:04:18: Christopher notes that social media can be problematic even for adults, interfering with real life. 00:04:26: Jessica discusses how innovation has outpaced child protections in social media, mentions Meta's 2024 teen account safety features, and notes that a 2025 report found these features ineffective, emphasizing that parents must be aware these tools weren't built for kids. 00:05:52: Christopher transitions the discussion to artificial intelligence as another challenge, asking what's happening with AI use among teens and preteens. 00:06:18: Jessica reports that 70% of teens have used AI and 50% use it regularly, primarily for fun, entertainment, schoolwork, and concerning companionship, noting that AI companions validate rather than challenge unhealthy thinking patterns. 00:08:05: Christopher asks Jessica to repeat what research shows children are doing with AI that is concerning. 00:08:20: Jessica explains that while curiosity-based AI use is fairly safe, the problem arises when kids seek emotional support from AI, which is not built for kids and cannot provide safe counseling, mentioning a lawsuit where parents claim their son committed suicide due to bad advice from ChatGPT. 00:09:43: Christopher summarizes that teens are creating artificial companions that appear as people on screen, creating asynchronous relationships that compound the challenges already present with social media. 00:10:22: Jessica discusses potential guardrails, mentioning ChatGPT's announcement to create age-based content filtering, but expresses skepticism based on Meta's failed guardrails, and emphasizes that parents keeping conversations going and testing technologies themselves is the safer approach. 00:11:50: Christopher summarizes that parents and mentors need to be engaged with children, maintain trust relationships, and help guide wise choices given that companies profit from children's attention. 00:12:39: Christopher asserts that no artificial intelligent therapist can replace a loving, caring, wise, experienced parent. 00:12:51: Jessica asks if the.re's anything else to share about AI, social media, and resources for parents, coaches, mentors, and teachers. 00:13:04: Jessica recommends "The Anxious Generation" and "The Phone Book," encourages parents to stay calm and authentic in conversations, and suggests families create tech plans together that outline screen-free times and appropriate technology use. 00:14:34: Christopher lists Jessica's books and asks where guests can find her online. 00:14:54: Jessica provides her website (jessicaspeer.com) and mentions her free e-newsletter, inviting people to reach out with questions. 00:15:11: Christopher concludes the podcast by thanking Famlis for support, encouraging subscriptions and reviews, and sharing the mission of making the world happier one parent-child relationship at a time. Key Takeaways Social media platforms currently lack effective safety guardrails for children and teens, despite recent attempts by companies like Meta to implement protective features. 70% of teens have used AI and 50% use it regularly, with concerning trends showing kids seeking emotional-support from AI companions that validate rather than challenge unhealthy thinking. Parents should approach technology conversations from a place of curiosity rather than judgment to keep communication channels open with their children. Creating a family tech plan together that establishes screen-free times and appropriate usage guidelines is an effective strategy for managing technology in the home. Parental engagement, trust-building, and ongoing conversations are essential since technology companies profit from children's attention and innovation has outpaced child safety protections. AI chatbots and companions are not safe substitutes for trained counselors or trusted adults when children face emotional challenges. Parents should test technologies themselves and have children demonstrate what they're doing online to better understand and guide their digital activities. Quotable Moments "Helping kids navigate tech is the new challenge in parenting. It's really one of the biggest challenges that parents face these days." - Jessica Spear "The innovation has flowed much faster than protections for kids, especially when it comes to social media." - Jessica Spear "We're still in a world where those tools were not built for kids. They are not very safe." - Jessica Spear "AI now really just kind of validates and supports those [unhealthy thoughts]. So that's where there brings some concern when kids are using AI for some emotional support." - Jessica Spear "No artificial intelligent therapist can really take the place of a loving, caring, wise, experienced parent." - Christopher Robbins "If we're coming from a place of curiosity and wanting to learn, they're less likely to shut down 'cause they're afraid they're gonna get in trouble." - Jessica Spear "As much as we can staying open to hearing their side of things and putting together a plan together, I encourage families to come up with a family tech plan." - Jessica Spear
Despite some initial skepticism, Jonathan Haidt's crusade against kids using smartphones has been more or less completely vindicated. Which got us thinking: what's he worried about next? In the ideas segment, Cal looks closer at three new technological harms that Haidt has begun sounding the alarm about. Then, in the practices segment, he details a somewhat eccentric technology strategy that he and his wife have deployed in their own home to keep their kids away from smartphones.

Šikanovanie, grooming, sexuálny a násilný obsah či nerealistické štandardy krásy a sexizmus – to je len časť problémov – alebo skôr reality – ktorej deti a tínedžeri čelia na sociálnych sieťach. Materské spoločnosti o tom vedia, no odmietajú s tým niečo poriadne urobiť. Čoraz viac krajín preto prijíma opatrenia, ktorými prístup na Facebook, TikTok, Snapchat a ďalšie deťom obmedzujú či dokonca zakazujú úplne. Vlani v decembri k takému kroku pristúpila Austrália ako vôbec prvý štát na svete. Je úplný zákaz tou správnou cestou a čo v tomto smere robí Slovensko? Aj o tom sa Nikola Šuliková Bajánová rozpráva s Jakubom Godom, publicistom a špecialistom na digitálnu komunikáciu, ktorý spolupracuje s Progresívnym Slovenskom. Zdroje zvukov: Youtube/ABC News, Youtube/Sunrise, Facebook/Matúš Šutaj Eštok, TV JOJ, TA3 Odporúčanie: V rozhovore sa rozprávame o knihe Úzkostná generácia od Jonathana Haidta, ktorá prispela k zintenzívneniu debaty o používaní sociálnych sietí deťmi a tínedžermi. Jakub Goda dopĺňa pre utvorenie si obrazu o tejto knihe aj text Má Jonathan Haidt pravdu o smarfónoch, ktorý niektoré Haidtove tvrdenia kritizuje. – Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na sme.sk/podcasty – Odoberajte aj audio verziu denného newslettra SME.sk s najdôležitejšími správami na sme.sk/brifingSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
With the Children's Wellbeing and Schools bill returning to the House of Commons imminently, it's a key time to make your feelings known. Email your MP https://www.smartphonefreechildhood.org/email. Today's episode is about a topic that I am truly passionate about - the introduction of social media and smartphones into all aspects of our lives - and what impact this is having on us individually, collectively and, perhaps most urgently, what impact is this having on our children. Jonathan Haidt is arguably one of the worlds' most eminent psychologists. He is a Professor of Ethical Leadership at New York University's Stern School of Business and the author of 4 best-selling books, including his latest ‘The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness'. In this episode, Jonathan and I explore how the fundamental differences between online and real-world interactions are affecting young people's social, emotional and cognitive development. We discuss why girls face unique risks on social media, from damaged relationships and reputations to harassment, and how gaming and pornography are shaping boys' expectations of relationships. Jonathan also shares some eye-opening data about the link between a decline in teen mental health and the widespread adoption of smartphones and social media. He emphasises the need for collective action to create healthier norms around technology use, both at home and in schools. We dive into practical strategies for parents, including setting clear boundaries and prioritising hobbies and family time. Our conversation also touches on the challenges of navigating technology use in a world where the pace of change has been so fast. Jonathan remains optimistic that we're nearing a tipping point and outlines four key norms we can all adopt with our children—even if they're already dependent on their phones throughout the day. We also discuss in detail what we believe schools could be doing to help their students have less screen time and the importance of collaborating with other families to support healthier habits. As a parent and a doctor, I'm deeply concerned about the mental health crisis facing our children and young people. But if, as a society, we can come together to raise awareness and take purposeful action, we can create a healthier future for the next generation. I think this is one of the most important conversations that I have ever had on my podcast. Jonathan and I both believe that the rewiring of our children's brains to be one of the most urgent societal harms that needs addressing. My hope is that you find this conversation eye opening, enlightening and thought provoking - and I very much hope it prompts you to take action. Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron offer a deep Christian theological analysis of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis involving Renee Nicole Good, examining the tragedy through the lenses of biblical anthropology, moral theology, and cultural analysis rather than partisan outrage. Drawing on thinkers like Augustine, Jonathan Haidt, René Girard, and Michael Polanyi, they explore how Christians should respond to politically charged current events, the tension between what is legal and what is moral, the danger of scapegoating and symbolic thinking, and why silence, prayer, and wisdom can sometimes be more faithful than instant commentary. This conversation is aimed at Christians seeking thoughtful, theologically grounded discussion of current events, Christian ethics, sanctity of life, authority, justice, and how to faithfully navigate polarized culture without surrendering compassion, truth, or hope.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

We covered topics you've been asking about - parenting triggers, rage, overwhelm, boundaries, and breaking family trauma cycles. We also did a deep dive across four episodes into Dr. Jonathan Haidt's book The Anxious Generation (which likely overstates the harm of social media on kids). There's also a summary episode that covers all the main ideas from the four deep dives in just 17 minutes. Based on feedback from the Podcast Advisory Council, we shifted to shorter public episodes while full-length episodes moved to the Parenting Membership's private feed. Our goal is to get you to the insights that matter faster. 2026: The Year of Mental Health This year, we're going deep on mental health. What even is it? How can we support it in ourselves and our children? And how does it intersect with neurodivergence? I've already recorded the first episodes and I have to tell you - my mind has been blown by what I'm learning. Big Changes Coming The Parenting Membership is now open year-round with a new onboarding process. The website is getting a complete redesign with filters so you can search by your specific challenge and child's age. Plus 10 new starter videos explaining core concepts.

We gorge ourselves on the internet, smartphones, social media, information overload — all of it constantly sap us of our emotional and intellectual vitality. Authors Pico Iyer and Jonathan Haidt argue it's vital we disconnect from our addictive online world to pursue a fulfilling, and richer life. By curtailing the noise of technology, media and other worldly distractions there's space to reconnect with the things that matter. "Humans were never designed to live at a pace determined by machines. The only way we could begin to do that is by becoming machines ourselves," says Iyer. Pico Iyer and Jonathan Haidt were two of the marquee speakers at the 2025 Aspen Ideas Festival. The theme this year was 'What Makes Life Good.'

Introducing the newest thing in higher (and we really mean higher — like look UP) education: The Flying Pig Academy. A dream of The Village Square (with support from Florida Humanities) for many years, it's finally aloft. The division in American society is big and seems impossible at times to address. The Flying Pig Academy is kind of an insider's how to. This Flying Pig Episode: We live in a highly individualistic society, so maybe it's not a surprise that when we're trying to solve a big wicked problem like our deepening political division our approach is based on the individual. Most of us think that we need to wrestle with the problem of political polarization in our own hearts, or we need better skills for talking to people who don't look or think like us. Of course those things are partly true, but The Village Square has learned through two decades of building trust across divisions that human beings are very groupish and that the solution to polarization is at a group level, not at an individual one. Bonus: you get bigger results way more quickly that way. It SCALES, which we need to do more quickly if we're going to really tackle of societal polarization. Mentioned: Jonathan Haidt, author of The Righteous Mind The second in the Flying Pig Academy series is an homage to our intellectual hero (and lucky for us, our friend and colleague) Dr. Jonathan Haidt who - literally - wrote the book for Pigs With Big Dreams.

This conversation emphasizes the importance of generosity, kindness, and the spirit of Aloha in fostering meaningful relationships and driving performance. Taylor shares personal anecdotes that illustrate the impact of empathy and authenticity in leadership, revealing how these qualities build trust and foster a culture of connection.We also touch on the importance of intentional leadership and organizational transformation, as Taylor shares his journey from Walt Disney World to the bustling scene of Las Vegas.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (12/10/2025): 3:05pm- Have technological advances over the last decade negatively impacted the mental health of young Americans? In an essay for the Free Press, Jonathan Haidt argues that Gen Z has lost its ability to focus, think critically, and often replaces meaningful relationships with simulations. If smartphones and apps have been psychologically damaging—what will the rise of artificial intelligence do? 3:15pm- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump held a roundtable discussion from the White House with several business leaders where he announced the launch of the Trump Gold Card: "The company can keep [employees] here, and they have a path to citizenship. Obviously, they have to be perfect people in America—and having passed the vetting, after 5 years, they'll be available to become citizens." 3:50pm- Is anyone answering the phones at the studio? Probably not. Plus, President Trump takes questions from the press. 4:05pm- While speaking from the White House, President Trump confirmed that the United States has seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela. While speaking with Politico on Tuesday, Trump said that dictator Nicolas Maduro's “days are numbered” and would not rule out a ground invasion. 4:40pm- President Trump told Politico that his goal for Venezuela is to make sure its people are finally “treated well.” 4:45pm- Speaker Mike Johnson said he is “absolutely delighted that Jasmine Crockett is running for Senate in Texas” and that “it's one of the greatest things to happen to the Republican Party.” 4:50pm- Artificial intelligence is being used for strategic “price surging”—Matt has worthless knowledge and he's excited to share it. Plus, did the limited-edition holiday Coca Cola live up to expectations? It wasn't quite as “smooth” and “creamy” as Coke had promised. 5:05pm- Daniel Turner—Founder and Executive Director of Power the Future—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to recap President Donald Trump's speech in Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania. Are the president's policies leading to lower energy prices? 5:30pm- Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath—Neuroscientist, Educator, & Best-Selling Author—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest essay for The Free Press, “We Gave Students Laptops and Took Away Their Brains.” Dr. Horvath responds to claims that “our children are less cognitively capable than we were at their age”—noting that “starting around the year 2000, something changed. For the first time in the history of standardized cognitive measurement, Generation Z is consistently scoring lower than their parents on many key measures of cognitive development—from literacy and numeracy to deep creativity and general IQ. And the early data from Generation Alpha (born after 2012) suggests the downturn isn't slowing—it's accelerating.” So, what's to blame? “The tools we are using.” He has conducted research and taught at Harvard University and Harvard Medical School. You can read the full article here: https://www.thefp.com/p/we-gave-students-laptops-and-took.

The Heat is On is an investigative series by Scrolling 2 Death, in partnership with Heat Initiative. Sarah Gardner, Founder and CEO of Heat Initiative, joins Nicki (S2D) to expose the truth Big Tech doesn't want you to hear – and this episode is about Meta.Meta's roots reveal a troubling origin story—from Facemash, where students were rated based on their appearance, to becoming one of the most powerful (and dangerous) tech companies in the world, with over 3.3 billion daily users. Behind the sleek apps and promise for connection lies a history of harmful design choices that target young users—fueling anxiety, depression, eating disorders, self-harm, and even suicide.In this episode, you'll hear from former Meta executives and whistleblowers, cybercrime experts, and child-safety researchers who prove that the company knew how harmful its platforms were to kids—and did almost nothing to stop it.Today, over 40 U.S. states, thousands of school districts, and countless families have taken legal action. And yet, Meta continues to push untested, potentially dangerous features—like their new AI chatbot—on teens without parental consent. Jonathan Haidt, author of The Anxious Generation, weighs in to warn how these harms are reaching an industrial scale and legal action alone is not enough. We all need to work together to hold Big Tech accountable. It's time to turn up the heat: Join our email list. Share this episode. Keep your kids off Meta platforms.Whether you're a parent, caregiver, educator, or simply someone who cares about the well-being of kids, this episode will give you the facts, the tools, and the fire to demand change.Hosts: Nicki Petrossi – Host of Scrolling 2 Death Sarah Gardner – Founder & CEO of Heat InitiativeExpert Guests: Kelly Stonelake - Former Meta executive and whistleblowerArturo Bejar - Former Meta executive and whistleblowerPaul Raffile - Cyber analyst and sextortion expertJonathan Haidt - Author of The Anxious GenerationResources mentioned in the episode:Instagram Teens research by Parents TogetherNY Times: The Men Who Use Instagram to Groom Child Influencers by Michael KellerExpert editing provided by Jacob Meade.

Uh-oh. The Wiggles are in hot water after popping up in a video with some 'unusual' lyrics — and it’s forcing us to ask what we really expect from children’s entertainers. We’re also calling out the new under-16 social media laws as this generation’s 'seatbelt moment': a long-overdue, system-wide safeguard for kids’ developing brains. Plus, the problem with nostalgia. The 'last time' TikTok trend might look wholesome, but it could be quietly distracting us from the moments we’re actually living. And finally: how does your family decorate for Christmas? We’re diving into a certain Royal Family’s festive… enthusiasm.

Have you ever caught yourself saying "no" to your kids' adventures out of pure instinct — only to wonder later if maybe the risk was worth it? In this episode, Chris and Melissa talk about how they're learning to raise kids who are more confident, capable, and adventurous by saying yes a little more often. The idea started after Melissa read The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt — a powerful book that explores how modern parenting and constant digital connection have created more anxious, less independent kids. Together, they reflect on how the shift from outdoor play to screens has changed childhood, and what parents can do to reclaim freedom and resilience for their kids. They share personal stories from their own family — like letting their teenage son navigate New York City solo, their kids exploring Paris and Croatia by themselves, and their 10-year-old's first bike ride to school (which included a coyote sighting and a dog chase). Each story carries the same theme: that a little bit of risk, independence, and real-world adventure is not just okay — it's essential. Chris and Melissa also discuss how media consumption has shaped our fears, why the world may not actually be more dangerous than it used to be, and how giving kids appropriate autonomy builds courage and confidence. They tackle the smartphone dilemma too — why they're rethinking when their kids get phones, and what it means to trade "connection" for constant anxiety. This episode will inspire you to loosen the reins just a bit, trust your kids more, and rediscover the joy of letting them learn through life — not just lectures. As Chris puts it, "Adventure builds confidence. Confidence builds courage. And courage builds character."

Psaki's attempt ultimately failed, leaving everyone uncomfortable. 3:45pm- Sen. Dave McCormick—United States Senator from Pennsylvania—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his recent editorial in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, “Veterans Are Not Victims, But Some Need Help.” You can find the article here: https://www.post-gazette.com/opinion/guest-columns/2025/11/11/veterans-day-affairs-va-mental-health-dave-mccormick/stories/202511110003. 4:00pm- On Thursday, several Democratic lawmakers—Sen. Elissa Slotkin, Sen. Mark Kelly, Rep. Jason Crow, Rep. Maggie Goodlander, Rep. Chris Deluzio, and Rep. Chrissy Houlahan—released a video to social media imploring service members and intelligence officials to disobey “illegal” orders issued by President Donald Trump. Though, they never once mentioned what the orders might hypothetically be. In a post to Truth Social, President Trump stated: “This is really bad, and Dangerous to our Country. Their words cannot be allowed to stand. SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR FROM TRAITORS!!!

You probably know Jonathan Haidt as the guy trying to save your kids from smartphones and social media apps. Likely you've read The Anxious Generation, which has been translated into 44 languages and sold nearly 2 million copies. One might say that Jon is Elvis for 21st century moms who don't understand Discord. But when Haidt gets written about decades from now, it will be for much more than this book and the powerful movement that came out of it. He will be regarded as one of the most important writers of this epoch. Because he has this remarkable ability to understand—and explain—our social condition. He holds up a mirror to us. He did it with his book The Righteous Mind, which explained why people are so passionately divided over politics and religion. He did it again with The Coddling of the American Mind, cowritten with Greg Lukianoff, which explored why young people—especially on college campuses—can become totally intolerant of opposing views. And in his latest book, The Anxious Generation, he asked the obvious question: Why are teens suddenly so unhappy? Why are they losing attention, self-confidence, and the ability to socialize? Perhaps it has something to do with the mesmerizing device in their hands. In a world gone mad, Haidt has turned common sense into a radical mission. Bari sat down with him in front of a live audience in New York City to talk about how we got here—and where we go from here.

A text arrives: want to help build a movement around Jonathan Haidt's new book? Within a week, Alexa Arnold is sitting in his NYU office discussing how to change the world—and then she's in a hot tub with friends having a panic attack because she can't figure out how to do this massive job and raise an 18-month-old at the same time. In this final episode of The Tryhards—a three-part series for ambitious parents trying to be the best version of themselves day by day—Kelly talks with Alexa Arnold and Kate Cockrell about intensive parenting, impossible standards, and what it means to choose work you love while raising humans who need you. Through conversations about performing motherhood online, the merge of adult world and kid world, and why competence plus joy might be the actual goal, they explore how modern parenting became unsustainably intense and whether caring for your own purpose is actually one of the best things you can do for your kids.
