Impact of Social Media on Children

Dr. Marlene Huff,health expert shares her views and tips for parents on child development and the use of social media. At the Kentucky Children's Hospital, these types of questions have been incorporated into all physical and behavioral health clinical exam. Social media is an important issue and it is not a fad; it is here to stay, said c Kentucky Children's Hospital child and adoloscent behavioral health therapist and associate director of the Division of Adolescent. In regular exams we ask children what their username and password is for their social media accounts, if they tell the truth about their age, if their parents are part of their 'friends' network, who their 'friends' are and if they are their age, and what they use the social networking sites for.
Huff highlights the importance of knowing how your child communicates with their friends outside of school, and suggests that parents limit the amount of time spent on technology such as video games, cell phones, computers and television.
