Alexa James, CEO of NAMI Chicago suggested parents and kids take a break.
“I think that with school being back, it’s always a good opportunity to have a reset with parents,” James said.
James reminded parents to keep in mind the origins of social media, which is to keep users coming back, especially when it comes to teenagers.
“It can create an opportunity to connect but can also cause cyberbullying or unhealthy competition,” James said.
