"Most social media platforms used by kids restrict users under the age of 13. But this is primarily achieved through self-certification, meaning children can simply lie about their date of birth."

🎁 Instead of giving your child a personal device this year, consider giving the "gift of access" to a device.* ➡️This leaves you as the parent with the right to set up passwords, parental controls and time limits. Have you tried this in your home?

A child's head weighs 3kg. Children with smartphones are growing up looking down at their phones, putting huge strain on their developing neck and spine. #delaysmartphones #protectchildren Join the movement: delaysmartphones.co.uk

‘Screens in school are harming our children.’ Very important piece in PoliticsHome by Sophie Winkleman “children are growing up in an age of instant gratification and are not used to having to concentrate and practise a skill.” politicshome.com/thehouse/artic…

Children are under huge pressure to get smartphones, so parents feel that immense pressure too. No one wants their child to be the odd one out. But there is another option. #delaysmartphones delaysmartphones.co.uk/sign-the-pledg…

One of the saddest sights is a child sitting in a pram with pastel coloured ipad in a case which attaches to the pram, so your know it’s theirs & they are often on it. Yesterday a little girl walked past me on our road, no more than 7, she was glued to what was clearly her phone.

Everyone wants to do what everyone else is doing. Gen Z are begging us not to give the next generation of young kids smartphones. The biggest insult to their suffering is we weren't really listening. Now we are! We are coming together to give kids a childhood again.

Imagine if our streets were so lawless that children regularly witnessed rapes & beheadings on the way to school & were propositioned daily for sex. This is not a horror movie: it’s the digital world that our children occupy. We must save kids from this online Wild West. A🧵1/16
