Let’s take a closer look at modern childhood and the role screen time plays. Co‑hosts Lily and Rhys share kids’ perspectives on technology. We follow teens working together to make a movie, and one 12-person family goes a full weekend without a single smartphone. Then, experts from Akron Children’s share screen time advice with our hosts.
