Emotional Resilience for our Children

The TV show 'Adolescence' highlighted some very important issues that are rising in our communities. We all know how dependent our children are becoming on their Smart phones. We see the children suffering from screen addiction and the resulting attention deficit, insomnia and poor mental health that follows.

 

Teenage brain development combined with an over-dependence on social media platforms and an ever-increasing pressure to be sexually attractive at a young age, is pushing our children too far. Their self-esteem, confidence and very identity is being attacked and predators are stepping in to exert heavy influences upon them.

​

What is INCEL culture?

Isolation and rejection

Lack of positive role models

Over dependence on Smart phones
