German school system and getting rich, says no to this sadly
Amen ❤
Funny how no one said You Tube.
No one has to be on social media. No way I would allow my daughter to have a smart phone until she was at least 16.
Parents: Do not give your kids a smartphone until they are close to being adults. You have no idea what they are watching when you are not around. Also, if you buy them a phone and allow them to take it to school, guess what? They'll be on their phones for a good portion of the day.
But how else will parents stay in contact with their kids? Times are dangerous now.
@@ethanchasejackson At school there is this thing called a landline phone that is in each classroom and the school's office too.
@@ethanchasejackson Fip phones.
I love that Sophie is still aware of her 10 year old self, and protecting her. That is indicative of advanced healing and I'm so happy for her that she's been able to address and deal with her inner child and the work around that. May it be so for all of us. 🙏❤
i am saddened by all teens today the way they process life its, heartbreaking .. searching for happiness yet in all the wrong places and activities .. you are loved but you dont freel loved ..they turn to things all teens turned to in past but the streets even the work places have far worse humans .. im just sad ... value yourself .. first find the right path i mean having two drinks after work on a friday or saturday is quite different from substance abuse ...just so sad i wish i could savethem all i watch adults and teens doing wrong .. abusing drunks .. not valuing yourself ...
Children’s brains are just developing. Social media is not what they should be on. I feel like these kids posting on social media without talent just want to be famous and popular and like changing themselves for others. Stop changing yourself for others. Be yourself. Also they should be careful with the people they hang around. Bad influences = crime being committed
When I was Teenager no iPhones was phone no smartphones
Genetics loads the gun...Society pulls the trigger...When I developed my eating disorder it was in the early 2000s and it was triggered by pressure at school and going on a diet and magazines just made it worse. Today, it's social media that makes it worse, but it's important to know that social media is not the reason for eating disorders. Eating disorders are a symptom of a bigger problem that someone is dealing with. Social media exasperates it, but it's not the reason.
Social media dangerous. Read your Bible. Read your Bible, and develop your prayer life.
Life is spiritual. You cannot survive without the Bible and prayer.
Hopefully every young person who reads this, comes to understand, they do NOT have to, give over their own confidence, to jerk(s)!!! Individuals who are ‘mean’ do not deserve the upper hand in gaining from situations, whereby they exist, to try to deplete the self esteem of another/others. Hopefully the young people understand and retain the knowledge of keeping the company/friends of (good/decent hearted humans). Hopefully. Also be great, if faith in God, Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit, would be their guiding light. Too much toxicity online, on the internet.
"IF" I Did Not Obey The Rule's The Next Month "I" Had NO PHONE!!! How Will I Pay It.😢
Put the phone away
Df I look like paying for therapy if I can talk to my cusin for close friend😂
it’s just so toxic
You don’t have to give your kid a phone. I didn’t have a phone when I was a kid so why do we give these kids all this screen time
These ppl don’t need therapy they need love plus therapy should be free
They didn't answer the 1st Woman's question... Fail... As a Parent, I nvr gave my Kids tht much freedom. They had 2 earn it; we kept tabs on their activities. Schoolwrk & Bible Studies all week, Games & other tech on wknds & holidays ONLY, and IF they did all their chores. Plus, we made sure they had friends visiting & going out weekly, along w/othr Parents & responsible Adults. Today, they r doing well & no tech-addictions 4 thm & plenty of In-Person relationships. Loved thm too much 2 let thm b molded by ths sick, stupid world. We fought HARD 2 help thm be happy, responsible independent Citizens.
This was not a bad video - but it spreads no awareness about tiktok and how it is literally autodownloaded on people's phones. It is used a lot in the youth community and fully comprised of non-stop, varied genre and flashy videos. The teens mention "reels" "mostly funny tiktok videos" and "instagram body image". But I don't get the amnesia over when the curly-haired young woman said 'I use tijtok to fall asleep'.
I don't get how that is supposed to be good platform if used for >one hour and everyday.
But, we digress... I use it too as a young adult. Something i observed is that there seems to be all these cultures and subcultures i'm surrounded by by my age group as a result of the app and it's trends and values, these days. I'm not sure it's always good, hope i don't experience the indirect impact. All our minds should have a confident and active forefront - cause young, growing minds are all like sponges.
