Empowering the Next Generation: A Mother's Innovative Approach to Social Media Resilience
In an increasingly digital world, one mother, Jamie Sea, is taking a proactive stance in preparing her 11-year-old daughter for the complexities of online interaction. Through a unique "social media prep school," Sea is teaching her daughter, Charlotte, how the human brain filters external events, particularly comments received on platforms like TikTok.During a recent lesson, Sea utilized a brain diagram and various pairs of glasses to illustrate her point. She explained that when someone posts a video, viewers process it through their own "lenses" – a combination of past experiences, beliefs about the world, and current emotional states. "Everything that happens starts with an external event," Sea stated, "and then it's going to go through all of these sensations... and it's going to go through all of their own past experiences."She provided a hypothetical scenario: Charlotte posts a dance video, and someone comments, "This is so cringey." Sea then guided Charlotte to understand that such a comment is "never about your dancing... it's about their experiences." She emphasized that the commenter might be feeling nervous, have had a bad day, or even be projecting their own insecurities.Further illustrating with different pairs of glasses, representing "jealousy" or "hurt feelings," Sea explained that people communicate through their own skewed perspectives. She concluded by teaching Charlotte to view negative comments as a "magic mirror" reflecting the commenter's internal state. "I want you to imagine that comment is actually what they're saying to themselves in the mirror," Sea advised, "they're actually not saying that to you, they're saying that to themselves." This innovative approach aims to equip children with the emotional intelligence to navigate online spaces with confidence and compassion.
