operating, it’s not going to
stop the we’re in a wet
pattern. Thank you, sir.
Alright, should it as always.
We are going to continue our
conversation this morning with
doctor low cash shahani.
This is a conversation we
started at the beginning of
the hour about trends. Some
dangerous on social media and
what we can do to protect
ourselves. And of course, our
loved ones. We had staggering
at the top of the show earlier
this morning talking about who
is impacted in just how much
they are impacted.
>> These are very disturbing
numbers when you break them
down, why is it children in
teens are most vulnerable when
it comes to
these challenges?
>> You know, 2 to 19 are
developing then toasted
personally, these developing to
trying to kind of get
themselves accustomed to that
role in the society and the way
they could easily influenced
social media challenges social
media. Pierre Fisher does play
a big part in that which kind
of you know, been Stu devote
that kids to some of these
challenges.
>> Some of these challenges
incorporate over-the-counter
medicines. Tylenol, Ibuprofen,
Benadryl. What is it that your
seeing with these medications
when it comes to
>> the
>> challenges with with younger
folks. So if he actually has
issued a warning about these
challenges and sent a note to
their doctors, the 2 most
common ones to be seen right
now is the Benadryl Challenge
N a popular name brand
challenge with a mix it with
chicken and cook. The chicken.
What’s happening is, you know,
our kids are obviously smaller
than our dogs. So even this
morning, those of these or the
counter medications causes a
large physican I’m done the few
symptoms that we seeing with
these challenges are seizures.
I use a nation’s liver failure,
reading problems and hence,
become becoming really
dangerous. Are these
intentional?
>> Are they are are are these
children doing these
challenges? Not understanding
fully the consequences that in
some situations this could lead
to death 6, actually, I think
it’s again to, you know, the
harmful effects of social media
influences has been SBA
pressure. That’s going to be
getting our kids too.
>> Do what
they’re doing at. Sometimes
the our intention in sometimes,
you know, people wanting to
actually hug them, says a
suicide at them. But for most
times, it’s just kind of, you
know, falling into the trap
of peer pressure at the top of
the hour, we heard from Bill
Spencer KPRC, 2 investigator
and he brought us inside a
handful families And we spoke
with a few moms and we were
able to go along on this
journey of discovering.
>> Some of these substances in
everyday bottles, you know,
every day, every day, being
bottles. He thought it was a
water bottle. And really it was
it was a way for these children
or teenagers
to hide Alyssa drugs or
whatever. And B, what is your
suggestion? What are your tips
to parents watching right now
that want to protect their
loved ones? So gusty knocking.
Everything is essential.
If you feel that your child
is someone who can be a to one
of these challenges.
>> Making sure the
over-the-counter medications
are logged sometimes, you know,
guns definitely a dangerous
item in the House. Definitely
having back in the gun safe
also are pesticides are he
knows that he was on a daily
basis. The dish community
should be looked at much
higher. Gavin, 8.
Again, I think that in the
monitoring is in part and
keeping a train Gulf what’s
happening and a good social
media page in charting that,
you know, they keep an eye on
the text messages, making sure
there’s no suicidality that
Cyprus needs to be monitored
by patients.
>> My producer earlier this
morning called this. I believe
it was a battleground,
right? Sam, you were referring
to, you know, social media does
such a great job at keeping
people connected, but it truly
is becoming the battleground
for challenges like this in
order for you to really be
ahead of the 8 ball in this
situation, you need to be where
your children are in. And so if
they are on social media and
they are being influenced by
whatever it is, there, you also
may be ought to be there to to
to be part of that into be
ahead of that. No, just as we
give our movies a bed into
separation, kind of a bag.
I think social media also visit
Japan into publishing packed
with. That’s a really great
way to look at it.
>> Thank you so much for coming
in. Thank you so much for
having me again. We do
appreciate it. Thank you.
