The best way to challenge unhealthy social norms is by making your own decisions based on what you know is right. This approach empowers you to stand up for what you believe in and encourages others to reflect on those norms as well. It fosters critical thinking and can lead to positive change in social behaviors. Engaging in open discussions, promoting awareness, and modeling healthier behaviors are also effective ways to challenge and change unhealthy social norms.
