Naval on All In pod this week: “My kid is on their iPad 9 hours a day” 🤯

I’m all for kids having agency but this was a surprise to me

Justified by:

✅ Homeschool
✅ 1 hour of math and programming
✅ 2 hours of reading before

great I like this 

But times have changed

Growing up we watched tv, played video games, and went outside

Today algorithms achieve nourishment by consuming your screen time - oftentimes at the detriment of your children

Let your kids explore, make decisions, fail, but limitations with technology must be in place

What do you think? What’s your parenting style?

Absolutely not. I'm all for exploration and exposure to technology but putting them in the drivers seat of a device that is increasingly designed to navigate your attention for you sounds like an awful idea.

I couldn't find an older source but I think Steve Jobs not allowing iPads for his children says plenty.
