In this episode of the Curious Podcast, we explore into the thought-provoking book "Anxious Generation" by Jonathan Haidt. Join me as I explore the rising anxiety levels in Generation Z and Generation Alpha, and discuss how parents can effectively navigate this challenging landscape.
I explore Haidt's arguments about the dangers of overprotection in the real world and under-protection in the virtual world. I also discuss the importance of encouraging free play, fostering resilience, and understanding the gender differences in mental health impacts.
Lastly, I cover practical solutions for parents, including delaying social media exposure, limiting online interaction, and promoting real-world engagement–especially in churches.
