It's exactly what you would expect.

None of it is great.

A parent asked her, when should I give my kid a cell phone?

And her response was, when are you ready for them to watch porn?

That will be the first thing they do when they pick up that machine.

Yeah, and there's no easy way to say it.

50% of kids have a special plan that gives them extra bonus time to help them because they have a learning disorder, typically an attentional disorder.

50%?

You can have what's called induced ADHD, where basically you act as though you have it, but you genuinely do not.

Over half of our kids are on a computer one to four hours every day for learning.

Imagine I had a drug.

I invented a new drug and you say, what does that drug do?

And I go, why don't you give it to your kids and we'll find out.

Yeah.

Well, similar to Francis, I was a teacher originally.

So teaching was my passion.

But I got into neuroscience because when I was teaching, that was a decade of the brain.

So everything was brain, books, brain, gym, brain this.

So I figured, all right, that must be the next evolution.

So I'll go learn that stuff, bring it back to my classroom, thinking that'd be a year or two.
