With so much of their lives playing out online, social media can have a major impact on children’s self-esteem. In this episode, we dive into the pressures children face in the digital world—comparison culture, the chase for likes and followers, and the unrealistic images they’re bombarded with daily. We explore how parents can help their children build a healthy self-image, recognize the influence of social media on their emotions, and navigate online spaces with confidence and resilience. Join us for practical advice on guiding your child toward a balanced relationship with social media.
We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who made this possible and to Elliott Kotze for sharing his invaluable insights. You can reach him at www.muizenbergpsychology.co.za
