A mom took to TikTok to share how she "de-pilled" her son after an off-handed comment hinted her son may have been exposed to content that disparaged women.

In the manosphere, a web of conservative cultural critics, the "red pill" refers to being awakened to the supposed truth about men and women.

Dr. Gail Saltz , an associate professor of psychiatry at New York-Presbyterian Hospital and Weill Cornell Medical College , says it's never too late to de-radicalize a child.

If they have this type of relationship from the start, it will be easier to address issues in the future.

It also gives children social-emotional tools for when they're inevitably confronted with one of these videos in an algorithm.

“This is just good empathetic connecting and you’re helping your child develop those skills for themselves”.
