The 4 Parenting Rules for Happier, Healthier Kids

He makes a good point...

But I will be damned before I let the Government usurp me as Parent to my Children.

Keep technology out if your kids hands as long as possible folks. Unless its absolutely monitored

Jon Haidt exposed the moral bankruptcy of The Left in his book The Righteous Mind.

idiotic idea,
instead you have to change school curriculum and strategy

Didn’t expect to see Eric Koston on this show

Yes

They would have the kid version at that age. Smartphones, hell any actual phone isnt a toy. As long as there are coloring books, crayons etc thats what they'd get even before those expensive kid version tablets etc. As for older kids teens, you can get one as soon as you turn 16 & get a DL & job to help pay your bill

Ironic using social media to get your point across at how social media is a bad thing

If you have to give them access to the internet, make a common computer room where they physically go to to access the things they need or to learn stuff with, and are shared among them.

Just put an age restriction on them already. How hard is that?

These parents must be made of money can barely afford my own

As a religious jew this is all ready normal. In fact some of us straight up dont babe smart phones as adults

Parents, give your kids books, not smartphones. Include them in chores, that's their entertainment.

And stop constantly using laptops in all lessons left and right. School work should be done with textbook, paper and pen/pencil. Stop teaching "skills" at school, teach old good knowledge. Yes, facts may be boring initially, but school-age is the best time for humans to learn facts they will remember all their life and they will connect them into their life theory... Skills get out of date, knowledge does not.
Stop using written tests as only way to evaluate the kids, they should be able to speak and tell the story - no, not with the help of PowerPoint!!!
Make the kids write essays - at home and at school. They should know how to express themselves.

Social media should be banned outright.

Porn should be banned outright.

One of our kids flipped their lid and went down a dark path because we wouldn't let them have social media before high school. Peer pressure is not endured equally.

ban horror movies and death metal too

The biggest problem is that many adults are too brainwashed to understand how bad social media really is, and they don't want to interact with their own children.

5 to 7 year olds can't drive cars, allowed to go the shop or anywhere by themselves, yet some parents think they have the psychological ability to comprehend the dangerous aspect of phones, social media and awareness of same. I get that technology as a parent to a degree like an ipad for school work etc is reasonable but children are children for a reason.

Nobody seems to notice the latest slang from the kids is fulled with porn and adult theme references. Im sure it wll be fine though.

People that say “my kid will be left out” are just weak parents making excuses. Left out from what? Addiction?

Society has reached a new level in lifestyle development and it's not good

Homeschooling is the way! Band together with other likeminded homeschoolers and your kids will have a great social life.

Better rule. No social media ever.

What happened to common sense ?

Hood luck, parents don't want to parent so they let the internet teach them, wonder why their so fd up.

Homeschool your kids!

My kid will get a flip phone and a GameBoy Advance SP and they will like it.

Yes 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯

1995, i was student in high school, got caught with a pager/beeper, punishment; 2 day In-School suspension. BS…!

In 20 years the kids that had them will be running things. For them it’ll be the norm. They won’t see it as doing something wrong, they’ll adapt to life with them in everyday life/work.

Kids shouldn't have phones until they're 16-18

Nobody is ready to do these simple things. And it's dangerous. And so few media point it out. Those that do... get silenced.

I watch these idiot parents out at a restaurant and every one of their kids is staring at a phone. Goddam pathetic

Great content, as always! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (wonder obey dial dash soon tank spike scout region undo zero such). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?

A million times yes!

Delete it. Best move I ever did digitally.

This guy is the canary in the coal mine. Most parents sadly are too lazy to discipline their children. It’s so sad.

His idea is that the state make illegal to use smartphone before 15?

Thank you 👏

:))))))))

That phone will "own and control" them kids if not supervised strictly.

Currently, with how toxic social media is, I recommend everyone to quit it. I'd say ban kids altogether, no on under 18, but I don't think that's possible.

My mom didn't give a f*ck what the other kids had or were doing .... she'd level us with one glare if we tried bringing up "other kids"

Love Haidt's fight against social media and phones for kids. The mass mental health issues are largely caused by it.

Pure logic.

I'm 40 and social media is starting to get to me. I can't imagine being 16 today.
