When Emmy Award-winning documentarian Lauren Greenfield set out to examine the relationship between today’s teens and social media, she expected parents would be in the background, like the adults in Charlie Brown. But she soon discovered they were an essential part of the conversation.
“I came into this as a parent, not knowing that much. And what I saw that was so shocking was how caring, loving parents are completely clueless about what’s going on, often right next to them,” Greenfield said at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit in Laguna Niguel, Calif., on Tuesday. Calling social media “the biggest cultural influence on young people’s lives,” Greenfield describes it as “a black hole where parents don’t know what’s going on.”
