Description

Vicki and Geraldine talk to Olaf Kapella, who has been researching families with younger children for the EU, about why parents matter matter so much to their children’s digital lives.

Talking points:

• The research found there were three different ways of dealing with tech and younger children - which type of family are you?
• Is screen time the right way to think about setting rules for online activity?
• Is it a good idea for tech to be used as punishment and reward?
• Can avoiding tech actually make children more vulnerable?
