Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | The Social Media World of Our Children

Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram Nanney


Guest(s): Dr. Michael Rich


Topic: We talk often about the good and the bad aspects of social media. There have been many cautions of overuse and the affect that social media can have on our children and teen’s mental health, yet there continues to be very high use with many teens admitting almost continual use during their waking hours. Today we have pediatrician, child health researcher and children’s media specialist Dr. Michael Rich to help us navigate through this difficult and sometimes hopeless seeming territory.
