This TED talk considers our ultra-social nature and advises parents to minimize their children's use of technology until maturity, and educators to do likewise with their students, because chatbots can provide counterfeit relationships that detract from genuine ones, while social-media can facilitate children's anxiety, reduce their ability to pay attention, inhibit critical-thinking skills, and interfere with learning in general. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DH9L7vJ03DE #Family #Parenting #ChildDevelopment #Technology #Technoskepticism #Smartphones #ScreenTime #SocialMedia #AttentionSpans #ChildAnxiety
