Not My Circle with Sharzad Kiadeh

A big thank you to Susan Reynolds, the co-founder of LookUp.Live , for agreeing to speak with me about the importance of finding Tech Life Balance. 

It's awful to hear about the current teenage mental health crisis. I totally agree with Kailani that there needs to be more qualified resources for our youth! Fortunately she seems like she has a great head on her shoulders, but I know that's not always the norm.  As always I highly recommend checking out the Organization of Social Media Safety and taking the free course so you can learn how to keep your kids SAFE online.

Are Teenagers addicted to social media? A High School Teachers Shares His Thoughts 

What better person to discuss teenagers and their potential addiction to social media than a High School teacher! One thing I truly find shocking is the amount of time kids are spending on apps- some are regularly clocking 14 hour days!

I know this conversation is heavy and painful to hear but I do believe it's an important one. I'm in awe of the parents out there who have turned their pain into purpose.
