Well, it happened for a season where one of my kids was bringing to me these videos from an influencer that I did not like.

And I was stuck, Danny, it was a conundrum because if I say I don't like that person, what is my teenager going to do?

Smile and say yes.

Yeah, right.

And so I really struggled with this.

And maybe you struggle with something like this as well.

I'm John Fuller, joined by Dr. Danny Werta, who leads our parenting team.

And it's impossible to compete with all those voices out there.

I mean, how to make $50 million in the next 50 years, how to

you know, get X amount of percentage of income from YouTube. There's so many different

voices out there. And they're all, they all seem like they're speaking directly to my child

through the phone. What do I do about that? That's the design, right? And recently with the

elections, my son 21, my daughter 19, both in different places as far as social media.

We were very careful as far as the whole social media thing, delayed it as long as we could.

They got to have social media after 18

and the phones, we delayed until 16. But man, my son around the election time, he's going,

hey, dad, did you hear this and that? And there are things that were just way out there. And I'm going,

I'm going, son, we got to, got okay we got to be careful with with what comes

through this whole social media thing and I music has been another one that that has been

interesting to me my daughter she was listening to a variety of artists and she put the music up

and we have conversations around the influence of music and I'd'd say, hey, can we stop and just listen carefully?

Yeah.
