And even worse is that... I mean, actually, I don't think that's a bad thing.

I mean, that is how we do so many things in life, right?

We basically hold our kids' hands until we feel... What's the right word?

We feel convinced that we can trust them to make the right decisions on their own, right?

When you teach them to cross the street, you do that.

I mean, even when they're really little and you take them on a playground, right?

You don't let them...

climb alone until you know they're not going to fall, right?

And then you still don't even let them alone with other kids until you know they're not going to hit, right?

You learn how

much oversight they need at any given moment and you slowly want to back off.

That's true.

But I think when it comes to screens, one of the things that bothers me is that what that often means is it's still this sort of time question.

It's often, you know, I keep track of how many hours they're on it.

But I want parents on it with the kids when they're little so that the kids learn to imitate mature behaviors online.

So they learn to imitate ethical behaviors, not just online.

I mean, in a digital world, so that they learn how to make sense of it.

So the parents help them understand and mediate their digital experiences.

And I think that there's not nearly enough of that happening among the really young kids.

And then, as you said, even with none of that happening, we still let them go when they become teenagers, where now they're not limited on time.
