Social media affects our teens’ brains. This isn’t just an unfounded opinion.

The American Psychological Association agrees.

At Last 2

Not only is the Surgeon General now wise to the foolishness of giving kids unfettered access to social media, but even the American Psychological Association is on board. New studies show even more just how much social media is affecting our kids’ brains.

Remember, the human brain is not even fully developed until the age of 25. You wouldn’t offer your child unlimited amounts of illicit drugs or alcohol, would you? Yet digital abuse is having a very similar effect on our kids’ brains. This begs the question- are we creating a generation of young people that we don’t even like or want to live with? Could this be a big reason why couples just don’t seem to want to have kids like they used to?
