Can technology addiction hijack your teen's brain? Join us as we explore how social media and gaming algorithms overstimulate dopamine pathways, leading to anxiety, depression, and even psychosis among teens. We dive deep into why boys are often lured into the gaming world due to high testosterone levels, while girls are drawn to social media craving social approval driven by oxytocin. Discover crucial parental strategies like consistent routines and habit stacking that can help manage this growing issue, and understand the vital role of parental intervention in curbing technology's grip on our youth.

Does a social media ban for those under 16 hold the key to solving tech addiction, or is it a futile effort? We dissect the government's legislative attempts to restrict social media use among teens and the potential loopholes they might exploit. We also highlight the powerful influence of peer behaviour, with many teens admitting they would only quit if their friends did too. This episode raises critical questions about the extent of technology's impact on our society and ponders what the real remedy might be. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that every concerned parent and guardian should hear.
