Catherine Knibbs is a leading cyber trauma expert and online safety specialist who helps parents, schools, and organisations understand how the digital world is shaping behaviour, mental health, and family life. In this episode, we go deeper than the usual “screen time” debate and unpack what’s really happening to kids online.

We talk about the risks and reality of AI and the release of ads on ChatGPT, why online exposure can create real-world trauma responses, and what practical boundaries actually help in modern households. Catherine shares clear guidelines for parents, why staying relevant matters more than being strict, how “phubbing” impacts children, and why gaming and digital habits are becoming such a big part of adult life too. We also cover Australia’s under-16 social media ban, what it could change, and what it won’t.

If you’re a parent, educator, or just trying to be more intentional with technology at home, this conversation will give you a much smarter framework than simply counting hours.
