Season 2, Episode 5: Social media & mental health (Screen Sanity - Tracy Foster)

Written By Susie Gurley

This is a do not miss episode for any parent! A myriad of studies link heavy social media use to mental health problems like anxiety and depression, and about 10 percent of teens have reported being victims of cyberbullying (https://www.helpguide.org/articles/mental-health/social-media-and-mental-health.htm).  Tracy Foster, co-founder and Executive Director of Screen Sanity ( https://screensanity.org), joins me on this episode of The Just A Mom podcast to talk about digital health and the way Screen Sanity can help parents navigate this tricky digital world.
