Why can social media be so detrimental for some children and young teenagers? 🤳

United States social psychologist Jonathon Haidt says Instagram, in particular, exposes girls to relentless social comparisons, which contributes to mental health issues.

"It's horrible what it does to teenage girls … it's just a really powerful tool for making girls feel inadequate, ugly, overweight,” he says.

Dr Haidt told ABC listen's Conversations that solving the issue wasn't as simple as just leaving the social media platforms because "it takes over as the communication network".
