The rising number of young people struggling with anxiety and depression in this post-pandemic world is alarming. Social media and the rapid evolution of technology are not helpful to this unfortunate reality as well. Marc Lehman sits down with Dr. Laura Saunders, a staff psychologist at the Institute of Living/Hartford Hospital, to discuss how parents should guide young people in dealing with their inner battles. They talk about the hidden benefits of allowing children to experience failure and the importance of encouraging them to leave their comfort zone. Dr. Laura also delves into the dangers of social media, particularly how it pushes the youth to embrace and normalize the culture of comparison and isolation.
