Scenario

When partners disagree about whether social media use requires intervention for mental health

My husband thinks our 15-year-old's social media obsession is just normal teen behavior, but I see how it's feeding her eating disorder and I'm terrified. Every time I try to bring up restrictions he says I'm being controlling, but I watch her compare herself to influencers all day and spiral.

More people experience this than they realize.
