Breaking the Screen Spell: Preserving Childhood in the Age of Tech-Driven Advertising

Whilst some of the tech our kids use is incredibly useful, the majority is a direct route from advertisers to their brains. So how is advertising & tech targeting our kids, what impact is it having on them & how can we protect them? My guest today is Dr Susan Linn. She's a psychologist & the Author of Who's Raising the Kids? Big Tech, Big Business & The Lives of Children. Susan explains how tech is training kids to be consumers, dampening their creativity plus how it's fueling commercialism and affecting democracy. This episode is supported by Sleeping Duck CONNECT WITH USConnect with That's Helpful & Ed Stott on Instagram. Find Susan via her website & on Twitter.
