Relating to Kids in a Digitally Connected World

Celebrate Kids Podcast with Dr. Kathy - A podcast by Dr. Kathy Koch

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy addresses the evolving relationship between parents and their growing teenagers. As kids reach their teenage years, parents often feel a sense of distance, compounded by the influence of external factors like artificial intelligence and targeted marketing. Dr. Kathy highlights the reality that while parents have intimate knowledge of their children from their earliest days, AI and advertisers are increasingly shaping how teens interact with the world. She references a 2023 Gallup study indicating that the average teen spends nearly five hours a day on social media, emphasizing the importance of understanding these influences. Tune in for valuable insights on maintaining connection with your kids as they navigate this critical stage of development.
