Big tech trains kids to become consumers from … well, birth. Child-targeted marketing is cringe-worthy at best and unethical at worst. It also undermines children’s healthy development because it robs them of opportunities to play, imagine, and learn freely without manipulation. Today I speak with Dr. Susan Linn about the ways in which technology exploits children (and what we can do about it at home).
