The social media world where many of our teens spend their time is primarily focused on appearances — not real connections. Kids will do almost anything to feel seen, even if that means who they are online doesn't match who they are in real life. In today's show, Mark Gregston and Wayne Shepherd discuss why teens are missing out on real social interactions and how you can help them navigate today's shallow culture. Listen in!

In today's episode, Mark shares the importance of outwardly expressing love to your teens and focusing on what truly matters.
