Teens often use social media and games on their phones, computers or tablets as a way to escape and provide a distraction from what's going on in the real world. While this can be good for a short-term escape, long-term use can teach teens avoidance, which can lead to larger isues such as a lack of confidence or ability to handle real-world stressors. See SB&H Marriage & Family Therapist Sara Listar-Guest's tips for helping your teen navigate the ever-changing digital world on page 42 of the Winter issue of MASK magazine.
