My wife and I have raised our girls media free but they are in 8th grade now and will start to be introduced to technology as a tool. They have never been on social media. I wanted them to know a life that was not “addicted” to technology. I wonder if it will be an asset to them or a liability in the future when they are surrounded by people who have all grown up and influenced /“indoctrinated” by social media and media in general. I just wanted them to know the difference and be able to be more aware of how it makes them feel vs. someone who has never known any other life other than being on a device and receiving constant input that leaves little to no room for wondering or pondering about something unknown. I heard a speaker at a Bioneers conference say “We are bloated on information yet starving for knowledge”. Truer words have never been spoken IMO.
