I'm really thrilled that you're aware of self-regulation and those topics.
Recently I did a program called Reset to Reconnect. It was with six families with adolescent boys. We did an initial kind of education. Then they went to it with their families, calling out their families on different things and setting their own plans for their families. After it was done, the feedback was that they recognized they had better sleep. They were more emotionally regulated. They were more connected to their family. They had more time to do other things that really social media and screens took away from them.
We're also seeing a really significant uptick in somatic symptom disorders, which involve someone's experiencing a physical presentation because of an underlying psychological event. For this, we have now seen on social media something called TikTok tics. When young people are watching a lot of TikTok, they start to get physical symptoms.
To go back to that, if we can teach parents early to regulate and teach young people to be in an environment of regulation, whether it's in schools, places of worship or other places, then everyone is going to have the same language and the same ability to take a breath before they respond. In so many situations, things are “figureoutable” if you're able to regulate.
