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?

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6487868/ ^ Logitudinal study where screen time over X hours associated with all kinds of bad stuff, but most concerningly a premature thinning of the frontal cortex It seems like common sense if you have any sensitivity to your own body that you don’t want kids - physically - to be staring at a screen all day while they develop (Any more than you wanting them eating candy all day) Kids will have plenty of time post-puberty to lock into the matrix. Do it after the brain has had a chance to develop

(I’m not a parent, but I did run an education company for 5 years and worked directly with thousands of kids from ages 4-18. Including building homeschools for families where majority of the core curriculum was online classes. Anecdotally it seems really obvious to me that overuse of screen is a risk factor. I’m using this study to back my own anecdotal intuition)
