Raising Kids in the Era of TikTok, AI, and Beyond with Dr. Austin Greenhaw

In this episode of Raising Joy, Dr. Pyrc and Wini dive deep into the profound impact of the digital world on our children's psychological development. With YouTube, TikTok, and AI tools like ChatGPT at their fingertips, kids today face a landscape of information – and misinformation – unlike any generation before.

Join us as we welcome Austin Greenhaw, M.D., a child psychiatrist from Cook Children's, to unpack the real-world effects of technology on young minds. We explore
the nuanced ways social media and AI influence mental health, the specific challenges posed by apps like TikTok, and how parents can guide their children through the complexities of online algorithms and misinformation.

Dr. Greenhaw shares insights on fostering a strong sense of self-worth in a world of online validation, the differences in how boys and girls navigate these issues, and practical advice for raising children in this digital age.
