What parents say after

This is a presentation every parent should see. Finally someone who explains what's actually happening and gives you something real to do about it.

Why This Talk Exists

Growing Up Online Is
Harder Than You Think

Most parents know social media is affecting their kids. What they don't know is how deeply, why, and what to actually do about it without destroying the relationship in the process.

Scott's talk for parents is built on one core idea: being tech savvy is the first step to understanding what your child's experience is actually like online. You can't guide your child through a world you don't understand. And you can't have honest conversations without the right language and the right approach.

This isn't a scare talk. It's a practical, warm, and often surprisingly funny evening that sends parents home feeling informed, equipped, and closer to their kids.

The Talk

Social Media
& Mental Health

One focused, deeply practical talk designed specifically for parents.

01
Social Media
& Mental Health

Parents will gain a deeper understanding of the social media and online landscape their children are navigating every day. Scott covers the neuroscience of why social media affects mental health, what the specific risks are for young people, and how parents can talk about it in a way their children will actually hear. The talk is honest, accessible, and leaves the room feeling informed rather than terrified.
