So just as an example, a colleague of mine mentioned this recently.

He was at a park with his five-year-old son, and his five-year-old son had a little toy truck.

Some other kid came and pulled it away.

And so his son and this other kid started fighting.

Now, in the long term, it would actually probably be really good for his son and this other kid to just figure out this conflict themselves, right?

But he and the other parent both jump in and resolve it.

And they're doing that because in the short term, they want to keep their kid safe.

They want to make sure no one gets hit and so on.

In the long term, though, that might not be such a good thing for the safety.

And so when we think about the safety of our kids, the real question is what is going to help them flourish as adults.

And in many cases, the measures that we think we're taking to make them safer in the short term are probably harmful in the long term.

Thank you.

Kids are using digital space as sort of the last frontier to get away from us.

You want to break that down into different kinds of screen time in the same way you would break it down into different kinds of food.
