Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas to help kids thrive
In Part 1, we looked at the evidence for the teen 'mental health crisis.' In Part 2, we reviewed the evidence for whether social media is causing the so-called 'teen mental health crisis. In Part 3, we began looking at what to do about the effects of phones on kids - starting with school cell phone bans. If you've read The Anxious Generation or heard about Dr. Jean Twenge's forthcoming book 10 Rules for Raising Kids in a High-Tech World, you might be wondering whether it's time to implement strict family phone rules and teenage social media limits in your home. These digital parenting experts promise clear solutions: you're in charge, no phones in bedrooms, no social media until 16. But what happens when these teenage phone rules meet the reality of family life? In this final episode of our Anxious Generation series, we explore why traditional approaches to limit social media time often backfire spectacularly - and what effective digital parenting looks like instead. You'll discover why rigid teenage mobile phone rules can actually push kids further away from you, how punishment-based approaches to social media teens mirror the failed DARE program, and why the child who follows rules perfectly at home might be the one taking bigger risks when they're finally on their own. We'll also share practical, relationship-based alternatives that help you address real concerns about teenage social media use while building trust and connection with your child. Questions this episode will answer How do you set social media limits with your teen? Focus on collaborative conversations about how technology affects them, rather than imposing rigid teenage social media limits without their input. Should social media be limited for teens? Blanket restrictions often backfire; effective digital parenting involves understanding individual needs and working together on healthy boundaries. How to limit cellphone use for teenager without damaging trust? Use connection-first approaches that explore their experiences rather than immediately jumping to restrictive family phone rules. How much time should a teenager spend on their phone? The answer varies by individual; focus on how social media affects your teen rather than arbitrary time limits. How to stop teenage phone addiction using collaborative methods? Address underlying needs that drive excessive use while maintaining open dialogue about concerning content and working together on solutions. Why is it important for parents to guide children on the internet? Teens internet safety requires ongoing conversation and support, not just restrictions, to help them navigate digital challenges independently. Should parents have control over their child's social media? Effective parenting social media approaches balance safety concerns with respecting teens' growing autonomy and need for peer connection. What you'll learn in this episode Why traditional family phone rules and "you're in charge" digital parenting approaches often strengthen the very behaviors you're trying to eliminate The hidden parallels between attempts to limit social media usage and failed drug prevention programs like DARE - and what this means for your family How to recognize when your teen's social

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Have you ever asked yourself? Am I helping my kids find meaningful ways to spend their time beyond their screens? When was the last time I encouraged or joined my child in an offline activity? Do I ever ask my children to share what they experience online? Today's fathers are raising kids in a world vastly different from their own upbringing. In this episode of The Dad Edge Podcast, Larry Hagner sits down with son Ethan to hash out the stark contrasts between “growing up with TV” and “growing up with a smartphone.” Larry and Ethan dive deep into how social media impacts motivation, mental health, and connection within families, exploring why “doom scrolling” can leave kids feeling depressed and stuck. They discuss generational changes, the pressure to always be connected, the fleeting nature of “streaks” on Snapchat, and—importantly—how open, non-judgmental conversation can bridge the gap between parents and children. With practical insights, plenty of laughs, and a heartfelt wrap-up, this is a must-hear for any dad (or mom) looking for more connection with their kids. So whether you're struggling with technology at home, wondering how to talk to your kids about the pressures they face, or just looking for real-world dad wisdom and relatability, you're in the right place. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: Understanding the Lure: Social reels are engineered for those instant dopamine hits, but they also make it harder for our kids to generate their own ideas for what to do with their downtime. Pressure Is Real: Not just on girls, but on young men too — from gym culture to physique expectations, today's teens feel the spotlight to “measure up” in ways we never had to. Screen Time Isn't Innocent: Endless scrolling can leave kids (and adults!) feeling drained and blue. Sometimes, all it takes is a thoughtful check-in (with options!) to break the cycle. Modeling Matters: Whether it's respect, discipline, or health, what we do still means more than what we say. Connection Beats Correction: When we bark “put the phone down!” we might be missing the calls for actual connection. Ethan shares, sometimes our kids just want us to start a real conversation, not hand them a to-do list or a lecture. This episode is a must-listen for any parent struggling to bridge the growing digital divide at home. So grab your headphones, and get ready to rethink how you connect with your own kids—one legendary day at a time. Here's what research and observation highlight about psychological and social impacts of smartphone and technology use on teenager and parents Studies show that 78% of teens feel anxious when they're separated from their phones. Studies show that roughly 84% of Parents Say Technology Makes Parenting More Challenging than When They Were Kids. About 52% of Adolescents Report Feeling ‘Left Out' if They Don't Have a Smartphone or Social Media. www.thedadedge.com/mastermind www.1stphorm.com/products/1st-phorm-energy

{Replay of Episode 169 from March 2024} Parenting with co-regulating and seeing below our kids behaviors is actually a privilege we rarely talk about.

The world feels chaotic lately—there's a buzzing energy that's both exhilarating and exhausting. As summer unfolds with packed calendars and endless activities, many of us find ourselves yearning for space while simultaneously craving connection. This tension reveals a profound truth about human existence: we need our village.The concept of "it takes a village" extends far beyond raising children. At its core, this phrase speaks to our fundamental human need for community in all aspects of our lives. Whether you're an introvert who cherishes alone time (like myself) or someone who thrives in social settings, having people around you who support, challenge, and understand you is essential for wellbeing.We've been conditioned to celebrate independence and self-sufficiency, but this mindset can lead to harmful isolation. Your village might look different than traditional communities—it could include close friends you can call at any hour, family members who provide unconditional support, online communities that share your interests, or even spiritual connections that guide your path. The composition of your village is uniquely yours, designed to support your specific needs and goals.Ready to expand your village? Join the Selfish Sisterhood—a diverse community of women supporting each other's growth and authenticity.

She was a face you grew up with—DJ Tanner from Full House—but today, Candace Cameron Bure is a creative force, entrepreneur, and mom of three navigating a media landscape that's changed dramatically since the 1980s. In this refreshingly honest conversation, Candace opens up about what it's like to raise kids in a streaming world—one with infinite entertainment options but fewer shared family experiences. She shares how fame shaped her childhood, how motherhood grounded her, and why she's working so hard to bring back meaningful content that families can enjoy together. Ginny and Candace talk about real transitions—career pivots, unexpected isolation, raising kids in radically different childhoods than their own—and the power of media to connect or divide. Plus, Candace introduces her newest children's book The Crazy Compromise, a heartwarming story about friendship across differences. Whether you're nostalgic for simpler times or just looking for ways to reconnect with your kids in today's media-saturated world, this episode will make you laugh, reflect, and maybe rethink family movie night. ***

Aaron Stupple, author of The Sovereign Child: How a Forgotten Philosophy Can Liberate Kids and Their Parents, joins Bridget for a discussion of a parenting philosophy that tosses out the rulebook and embraces kids as creative, knowledge-hungry mini-humans. From turning teeth brushing into a sugar-bug-smashing game to letting kids opt out of arbitrary rules, Aaron argues for problem-solving over control, drawing on Carl Popper's ideas about knowledge creation. They cover why screens are a parenting superpower, how to raise free thinkers without coercion, the “because I said so” approach, and why defiance might just be your kid's secret weapon.

As parents, how do we raise our kids to be resilient against life's inevitable hardships? Good Inside author Dr. Becky Kennedy shares her insights here!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1163What We Discuss with Dr. Becky Kennedy:Boundaries are what parents tell kids they will do — not what kids must do. "If you're not off the couch by the time I get there, I'll pick you up" works better than threats or punishments that require kid compliance.Optimizing for happiness in childhood creates fragility in adulthood. Kids who avoid hard feelings never learn they can handle disappointment, jealousy, or failure — leaving them with a narrow range of emotions they feel capable managing.Parents have two jobs: setting boundaries and validating emotions. These aren't opposites — they work together. Set the limit, then acknowledge their feelings: "You really wish you could keep jumping on the couch.""Do nothing" is often the best parenting strategy. It's mindful restraint — choosing not to react in the moment when kids are upset. This prevents escalation and models emotional regulation better than immediate correction.Build confidence by letting kids struggle through puzzles, conflicts, and challenges. Tell them: "The best feeling is when you think you can't do something, then watch yourself make progress." Struggle builds capability.And much more...And if you're game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
