Honestly, I rather have the kids spend time on HIVE-Blogs than FB/IG and all that. Here, they can learn things and get exposed to some really good content. That's not the case anywhere else anymore 😅 But we'll see, maybe Hive will become big enough to be felt as a threat to the government 🤣

Don't forget TikTok, now kids want to be tiktokers... It's full of dumb videos or challenges they copy...
It's all rubbish and kids are mostly fucken dick heads.
I'll try and grow mine not a dumbass, for now he doesn't even know whats a tablet
It's an uphill battle these days! But I'm working on the same, though she knows what that is already. At least she's not totally fixated on screens and knows that she can watch a movie per week, and is fine with that.
Until they are little it is not too hard, the problem I think is when they grow up and at school everyone else watches screens, that will be a tough battle I think... For now it's still ahead time for me
I talked a lot about that with a friend of mine who's daughter is just in that age. He thinks like us, and his daughter is very conscious, and yet she does have problems controlling the screen-impulses, which she knows and expressed herself. The issue for her is loneliness, it's isolating to not do the same as others, even though it's harmful. And it's hard to find other kids like that in the same age group around here. Most grow up being shut up with screens, and get used to it.
It's going to be interesting how all that develops in the next 5-6 years, until Lily hits that age. Until now, the Waldorf school is a great complementary to my style of upbringing, so I'm not too worried.
Exactly this! I can perfectly understand her because at my time you were isolated if you hadn't Nike shoes or watched a specific TV series or smoked... And I can't blame her really, it's a harsh age, you want to be part of the group. It's hard for both parents and children, fingers crossed for us
