Ah the blissful ignorance of parenting young children

“I’m giving a 5 star bc 99% of the time, these guys provide an incredibly thoughtful and balanced approach to covering tech issues, and generally admit to any blind-spots and biases. BUT… regarding the kids and social media conversation. You guys. C’mon. And I get it- when my daughter was 3 (and an angel), I too gave myself a premature high-five about how amazing I was as a parent, and how great she would be at 15. And now here we are… literally every argument and conflict ties back to that little rectangle that’s surgically attached to her hand. And we don’t even allow social media. It has highjacked her brain, it is literally rewiring our kids. To suggest we can “teach them to use it responsibly” when (1) the companies don’t give us the tools to control exposure (2) we can’t even figure out a responsible way to use as adults is so incredibly obtuse. Do you REALLY think all of us parents have just totally given up on parenting? Bc that is the only way mental health, attention, social issues could be such a huge issue, if tech (/social media) isn’t at least a part of it, controlling for all other variables, as the biggest thing to change around how kids socialize vs even 10 years ago. Yet we (working moms) spend more time parenting these days on avg than stay at home Moms in the 70’s. Everyone is a perfect parent until they become one. Or in this case, become the parent of a teen. I’d love to see you revisit this issue with actual parents of teens.”
