In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde explored worsening adolescent mental health—drawing on the U.S. CDC’s findings and the U.S. Surgeon General’s warnings on social-media harms—and why parental stress amplifies the problem. He laid out what this means for tech, schools, and brands: time-bounded-by-default experiences, no-algorithm kid modes, and third-party audit trails—shifting the focus from age verification to measurable well-being.
