Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is our teenagers' shifting attitudes on whether or not social media is harmless, or harmful. Back in twenty twenty-two, thirty-two percent of our thirteen to seventeen year olds said that social media sites have a mostly negative effect on people their age. At the end of twenty-twenty-four, the percentage of kids saying the same thing had risen significantly to forty-eight percent. Parents, when our kids themselves are self-reporting that social media is harmful, we need to interpret that as a cry for help. God has given you the responsibility to raise and nurture your kids to spiritual maturity. Perhaps it's time we realize that we must take steps to help them peel away from social media harm.
Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most concerning findings to me is that thirty-four percent of our kids say they go to social media to get mental health information, with sixty-three percent of the kids surveyed saying that social media is an important source for information about mental health. My concern is fueled by the fact that even though one can find good advice on social media, it is also a source of misinformation, and even the kind of bad information that can encourage kids to embrace and lean into things like gender confusion, immoral sexual practices, and body dysmorphia. Parents, prepare your kids with warnings about what they might find on the internet, along with constant encouragement to come to you so that together you might get the proper needed help.
Washington adults are more likely than Idahoans to oppose teacher-led prayer in public schools, especially prayers that mention Jesus, according to new Pew Research Center findings. The analysis also explores shifting support when prayers refer to “God” more generically.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss today's rulings from the Supreme Court, including a 6-3 decision that limits the ability of federal courts to issue nationwide injunctions that block a presidents' executive orders. They also talk about the fall-out from the New York Democratic mayoral primary. Then, they discuss new research from the Pew Research Center on the 2024 election and they deliver the “You Cannot Be Serious” stories from the week. Next, Carl and Andrew speak to Emerson College Pollster Spencer Kimball to discuss his most recent poll numbers, including a look at likely presidential candidates in 2028 and Emerson's poll of the New York ranked-choice mayoral race. And finally, Andrew talks to RCP National Correspondent Susan Crabtree about her recent reporting concerning dual nationality political prisoners held in Tehran and efforts to gain their freedom. Will the Trump Administration push for their release as part of a larger deal with Iran?

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, and their parents, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is that both parents and teens have concerns about teen mental health these days. Only twenty-three percent of teens reported being not too or not at all concerned about teen mental health, which means that seventy-seven percent of teens report being extremely, very, or somewhat concerned. For parents, the concern was more widespread, with almost nine out of ten parents being extremely, very, or somewhat concerned about teen mental health. Parents, there are ways in which you may know your teens even better than they know themselves. If you are concerned, ask questions, pay attention, eliminate unnecessary pressures, and where needed, secure the help of a qualified Christian counselor.
We’re wrapping up our series on how to have your best vacation ever. We’ve already covered the power of setting and sharing expectations, along with eight intentional steps to make your time away more meaningful. But what happens when tech distractions sneak in and start to steal those special moments? In this episode, we’re revisiting five practical tech tips to help you stay focused on what really matters during your vacation. A few thoughtful boundaries can go a long way toward keeping your attention—and your heart—right where it belongs. In this episode, John discusses: Setting clear boundaries for technology use Using digital tools without letting them take over Modeling intentional tech habits for others Capturing memories creatively without relying on phones Getting active to help minimize screen time Key Takeaways: Designate specific times and areas where phones and devices are off-limits—like meals, game time, or evenings. These tech-free zones help protect face-to-face connection and make space for deeper conversations. Schedule intentional moments for using phones—whether it’s snapping photos, checking in with friends, or finding local spots to explore—so tech use stays purposeful, not constant. Lead by example when it comes to phone habits. Others, especially kids, will often mirror what they see, so your own behavior can gently shape the group’s overall tech use. Bring along a digital or disposable camera to encourage creativity without defaulting to your phone. It adds fun to memory-making and invites everyone to see the trip from a different perspective. Plan active group moments that naturally draw attention away from screens—like a hike, a game, or a walk on the beach. Physical activity often creates space for presence, laughter, and lasting memories. “Stay prayerful, flexible, graceful, and kind. Even with preparations and expectations set and shared, and tech tips in place, and doing your best, a plan is still only a plan.” Resources Mentioned: How Teens and Parents Approach Screen Time by Pew Research Center: https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2024/03/11/how-teens-and-parents-approach-screen-time/ CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW MORE MONEY MADE FAITHFUL!

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is one that helps us to understand that the world has changed since we were kids, and that there are aspects of their lives that are foreign to us. When asked to list the one thing that they think most negatively impacts teen mental health, the top five things teens listed are these: twenty two percent said social media. At number two, was bullying, mentioned by seventeen percent. At number three was pressures and expectations, mentioned by sixteen percent. Coming in at four was general technology, at eight percent. And finally, only five percent mentioned school. It's interesting that every one of these pressures is ramped up by spending time online. Doesn't it make sense that we establish time limits for social media use?

Michael sits down with Laura Silver, Associate Director at the Pew Research Center, to unpack the state of trust and neighborly connections in America. Drawing on the latest 2025 Pew survey data, they explore whether Americans still trust most people, know their neighbors, or engage in simple acts of kindness like watering plants or making small talk in a grocery store. From the decline of local media to the rise of digital isolation, this episode covers why Americans report more willingness to help others than they expect in return, and what this says about the social fabric of the country. Is it a crisis of connection? Or a misperception of division? Tune in to find out—and maybe be inspired to knock on a neighbor's door. Original air date 19 May 2025.

By 2030, most adults, especially women, might be single for life. A study by Pew Research Center found that nearly 1 in 4 single adults may stay single for life. While that doesn't mean everyone is destined to be alone, it does reflect big cultural changes in dating, relationships, and partnership compared to 30 years ago. Cities like Boston are even ranked among the loneliest in America.Dr. Gabe sits down with Kristal Kleer and Desiree for a candid, eye-opening conversation about the future of relationships—specifically, the growing trend of lifelong singleness among Millennials and Gen Z.

Immediately after the murder of George Floyd, there were more people than ever drawing attention to issues of racial inequality and police treatment of Black people. A new Pew Research Center study finds that in the years since, Americans are skeptical that 2020 actually led to any significant change. Two people joined Minnesota Now to dig into the data. Kiana Cox is an author of the study and a senior researcher on the race and ethnicity team at the Pew Research Center and Yohuru Williams, founding director of the Racial Justice Initiative at the University of St. Thomas.
According to Pew Research Center, 55% of U.S. parents report being extremely or very concerned about the mental health of teens today. And several factors are driving that concern: increased influence of technology and social media, lingering effects of the pandemic, and social pressures like extracurricular activities and academic performance. Substance use is also linked with mental health and is occurring at younger ages with a rise in youth overdoses. Mental health wellness and prevention programs from previous generations, some of which are still used today, have been ineffective or even counterproductive. So, what strategies actually work? In this episode of “After the Fact,” psychologists Obari Adéye Cartman and Sharon Hoover, as well as Pew's Jessica Roark, discuss how to improve youth mental health programs and address substance use.

Episode 193: Hosts Scott Rada and Richard Kyte explore the erosion of social etiquette in American life and why it may be more consequential than it first appears. From rising road rage and customer service outbursts to the coarse tone of online discourse, the episode looks at how rudeness has become more visible — and perhaps more accepted. One recent Pew Research Center study found that nearly half of Americans believe people have become ruder since the COVID-19 pandemic, though most don’t see themselves as part of the problem. The conversation touches on generational divides, including sharp differences in attitudes toward profanity, and explores how digital communication and AI-driven systems reshape civility expectations. Kyte also reflects on his own classroom experiences and the ways formality and politeness in education have shifted over time. Rather than seeing manners as outdated relics, Kyte argues they play a vital role in building trust, humility and cooperation. While norms constantly evolve, he cautions against the assumption that abandoning them altogether leads to greater freedom. Instead, he calls for a redefinition of etiquette that upholds respect and reinforces a more community-minded society.
(AURN News) — A recent survey from the Pew Research Center finds that most American teens believe children can thrive even when both parents work — and Black teens are by far the most likely to say so. Among U.S. teens ages 13 to 17, 57% say children are just as well off when both parents have jobs. But when broken down by race, 77% of Black teens hold that view — the highest among all racial groups surveyed. Only 22% of Black teens say children are better off when one parent stays home to focus on the family. In contrast, White and Hispanic teens were more likely to say having one stay-at-home parent is better for children — 46% in each group. Income also played a role. Among teens in households earning less than $30,000 a year, 57% said children do better when one parent doesn't work outside the home. But among teens in higher-income households, most said children are just as well off when both parents have jobs. Politics mattered too. A majority of teens who identify as Republican or lean Republican — 53% — said children are better off when one parent stays home. In contrast, 65% of Democrat-leaning teens said children are just as well off with two working parents. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Today, almost 40 percent of American adults aged 25 to 54 are unpartnered—a major shift from just a generation ago, according to a 2021 Pew Research Center analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data.

The Genesis creation narrative tells us that after creating humankind both male and female in His own image, God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it.” This creation mandate reveals God's intentions for His image-bearers. New research conducted by the Pew Research Center indicates that for today's teenagers ages thirteen to seventeen, getting married and having kids is not a top priority. In fact, eighty-six percent of the respondents say that it's extremely or very important for them to have a job or career they enjoy and which brings financial success when they reach adulthood. Only thirty-six percent said that they cared about getting married, and just thirty percent say it's important to have children. With the cultural tide moving in this direction, perhaps we need to do a better job of teaching about God's heart and design for the family, teaching them that having and raising children is a high privilege and high calling!

The latest Pew Research Center survey numbers of this White House's favor with the people are in and no surprise, Republicans by and large are loving President Donald Trump, while Democrats are not. Democrats are in lockstep on their hatred for Trump's policies. But America is back on track for a new age of golden politicking, including in foreign affairs. Shea Bradley Farrell, president of Counterpoint Institute, speaks from Hungary about the regard for Trump she's experiencing on the streets in Europe.
(AURN News) — As President Donald Trump gets ready to mark his first 100 days in office in his second term on April 30th, new polling data from the Pew Research Center shows a significant drop in public approval and growing resistance to his administration's sweeping policy changes. Trump's approval rating now stands at 40%, according to Pew, down seven points since February. The report attributes the slide to widespread disapproval of the president's continued use of executive actions and controversial policy moves. “Trump's current approval rating of 40% is on par with his rating at this point in his first term. It remains lower than other recent presidents' approval ratings in the early months of their presidencies,” Pew said in its report released this week. The poll also found that 59% of Americans disapprove of Trump's tariff increases, while 55% oppose his ongoing cuts to federal departments and agencies. The report also highlights deep divisions over the role of the executive branch and its limits. Of those polled, 51% believe Trump is making too many policy changes through executive action, raising concerns about the balance of power in Washington. Pew also found that 78% of Americans believe the Trump administration would need to stop an action if a federal court says it's illegal. And 88% say the administration should have to follow a Supreme Court decision, reinforcing the public's expectation for constitutional checks on Mr. Trump's presidential authority. Pew's report also found that 78% of Republicans support Trump's move to end Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives in the federal government. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this week's episode, host Kristin Hayes talks with Brian Kennedy, a senior researcher at the Pew Research Center. Kennedy focuses on science and society research, studying public attitudes, knowledge, and beliefs about science—including energy and environmental issues. Kennedy and a coauthor released survey results about US public opinion on climate change and related issues at the end of 2024. Kennedy discusses how the survey was conducted and shares his insights on the survey's findings, such as differences in public attitudes toward the clean energy transition; how partisanship is a powerful predictor of views on climate change, climate policy, and even perceptions of extreme weather events; and points of overlap at which Democrats and Republicans share support for certain climate and environmental policies and objectives.

It's the UConn Popcast, and what impact will AI have on being human in the next decade? Elon University's Center for Imagining the Digital Future just released a big report on this question, based on a survey of nearly 300 global tech experts. These insiders predict major changes in the very near future to the way we think about work, life, and ourselves. We talked with Lee Rainie, the director of the center and co-author of the report. We also discuss another center report, on the impact of AI on higher education, as well as Lee's earlier career as a political journalist.

Little Man, Big ChangeLuke 19:1-10Teacher: Blaine Dennison, Congregational Care Pastor at Oak Pointe ChurchA study performed in 2021 by the Pew Research Center revealed that 41% of Americans have experienced some form of harassment online, with 75% of those saying the abuse took place on social media. It's clear that communication between humans has been impacted significantly by the internet, and not always in the best way. Online interactions don't allow human connection because the person at the other end of the sentence is just a screen. When humanity is reduced to an object, then anything goes.During His earthly ministry, Jesus looked into eyes, touched with His hand, held with His arms, and spoke with His voice. Today He speaks into our hearts through His word, and now we are His hands and feet that deliver His message to others. The Word of Life breaks barriers and defenses and invites outsiders to come in and sit at His table.
In this episode, Dr. RJ tackles the beginning of Pew Research Center's article, Parenting in America. If you are a parent of an adolescent, this episode will open your eyes about the common issues among today's teenagers.
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Legal reporter Jeremy Sharon and archaeology reporter Rossella Tercatin join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Yesterday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused police of holding two aides “hostage” after they were arrested over their alleged engagement in illicit ties with Qatar while working for the premier, who interrupted his ongoing corruption trial to provide testimony in the controversial Qatargate investigation. Sharon delves into the latest developments. The High Court of Justice ruled unanimously on Thursday that Israel has taken a variety of steps to provide for the humanitarian needs of Gaza’s civilian population during the current war with Hamas, and that there was no cause for the court to order the government and the army to take any additional action. We hear why this ruling is important in the context of other accusations against Israel on the international stage. The IDF issued a statement on Monday night announcing that it had disciplined several officers and troops for vandalizing Palestinian property in Jinba after an investigation it conducted into the incident. Villagers claim that troops had stood by while the settler extremists attacked residents and prevented a Red Crescent ambulance from evacuating the wounded. IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir went to Jinba himself to investigate the incident on Sunday, as did Sharon. He reports back. Almost one in four US adults who were raised Jewish no longer identify as such, a new report by the prominent Pew Research Center released on Wednesday has shown. The report focuses on the phenomenon of “switching religions” around the world, and it is based on data obtained by polling almost 37,000 Americans and over 41,000 individuals in 35 other countries, including Israel. Tercatin gives highlights. For the first time, a team of Israeli archaeologists has uncovered ancient artifacts at northern Israel’s “Armageddon” site that might offer proof of an epic battle documented in the books of Kings II and Chronicles between a king of Judah and an Egyptian pharaoh. We hear how the old adage "an army marches on its stomach" may give us insight into this historical battle. Please see today's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Fully 53 percent of Pew Research Center respondents said there were too few American women in politics. What do you think? What's clear is that there are too few women holding Republican Party offices. When you look at the data and break down the figures, whether it's federal, state or municipal offices, fact is Democrats outnumber Republicans when it comes to women office-holders. This trend needs to change. Rep. Lisa McClain is the House Republican Conference chair and the highest ranking woman in House Republican leadership, and she has quite a bit to say about the state of the nation, the state of Democrats, the state of the leftist attacks on President Donald Trump and more — and all in time for Women's History Month.

About 120,000 immigrants lacking permanent legal status live in Oregon, according to a 2022 estimate from the Pew Research Center. The state has sanctuary laws in place, meaning that state and local resources are not used for federal immigration enforcement. Law enforcement officials in places including Marion, Polk and Jackson counties have told local media outlets they will continue to follow state laws on immigration enforcement. Still, immigrant communities face uncertainty as policies change at the federal level. Kathy Keesee is a program coordinator for Unete, a nonprofit in Jackson County that advocates for agricultural workers and immigrants. She joins us with details.
