This document summarizes a presentation about modern media and youth. It discusses [1] how social media has grown exponentially in scale and popularity, with billions of videos watched and uploaded every day on platforms like Facebook and YouTube. It also [2] notes both pros and cons of social media use, such as how it enables openness and transparency but also brings concerns around privacy, cyberbullying, and the potential for "Facebook depression." Finally, [3] the presentation poses questions to the audience about how professionals and individuals can respond to social media and new technologies.

15. I use twitter to research how moms/dads
online are responding to controversial
parenting topics and new findings, but
also how they share about their own
listen
lives. I learn
and from my
incredible community there: world health
experts, pediatricians, activated patients,
bloggers, etc. It’s a place for me to grow,
network and share my thinking.
