Article intro:
Today we chat about a problem that gives many parents a headache:
The kid is hooked on the phone; what to do?
About this you have probably heard lots of advice. But the approach we talk about today is a little different. See, most methods on the market to fight phone addiction are addressed to parents. The method today is addressed directly to the child. So if your child, or a teenager around you, has similar troubles, I strongly recommend you forward this episode to them directly.
This approach comes from social psychologist Jonathan Haidt, the author of The Anxious Generation. He is also one of the earliest scholars studying phone addiction. His The Anxious Generation was once one of the best-selling books on this topic. Reportedly, Britain, France, Australia, these countries rolling out or tightening phone bans, were, more or less, influenced by this book.
