Social Media & Mental Health
What the research actually says — and what to do about it.
Inside this course
Social media is not the same as screen time. It is a specific product, designed a specific way, with specific effects on developing brains. This course walks you carefully through the evidence — including the parts that don't fit either the panic narrative or the dismissal narrative — and gives you a concrete family approach that respects your child, the research and your peace of mind.
You'll finish with

- Recognise the specific mechanisms of harm
- Delay well without banning forever
- Support a child already on social media
