Do you think that there's any way that we can like mentally prepare for this sort of stress load?

Yeah.

And I mean, social media algorithms, obviously it rewards outrage, right?

So I feel like we're actively being conditioned as well to behave a certain way.

Or do you feel like it's just human nature being amplified?

Now, I have to ask, why do we want to pile on or be a part of a mob?

You know, from a psychological perspective, what's actually happening in someone's brain when they see a person mess up publicly and then feel the urge to pile on?

Because I feel like that is, I'm seeing that so much more than ever before.

Interesting.

Now, children online.

So I've got a seven-month-old girl and I know that you've got a lot of... She's not online yet, right?

No, no, no, no.

God, no.

I mean, look, she appears on my profile, which I don't know if I regret yet, but I do honestly think about, you know, the internet and how she's going to grow up with it.

And it genuinely freaking terrifies me.

So as a new parent, or, I mean, there's a lot of parent mums and, you know, dads that tune in, what should I actually be preparing for her to grow up online?

P is, I mean, she's only seven months and I've got friends who do, you know, a lot of screen time and things like that.

And we, we just simply don't do that.

And I hide my phone behind a book if I need to work on my phone, like I try to really disguise it.

Now I know that you're about to release a book as well about raising boys, but overall, how can we teach discernment to ourselves and our kids now as well, that AI algorithms, do you have a question to ask ourselves?
