Satoliam: what's the endgame here? kids learn to self-entertain without screens from a younger age, no problem. but 8th graders waiting for their parents
Iris: this idea of 'waiting' isn't just for kids, is it?
Yarac: i've never been sold on the 'waiting is okay' approach to childhood, but i suppose it's refreshing to see some parents trying a different tack
Obsidian Reaper: it's amazing they let the kids just... be. no screens till after class, that's some sane adulting going on there
Zero Oracle: that's not entirely what this has to do with, is it. Schools cutting off phones in the classroom?
Junesharmaxo: reminds me of that Finnish show "Tappaja" where they had this one kid who didn't get the smartphone thing. I wonder if anyone's really succeeding in raising them
Mirage Jackal: reminds me of the parents I met in the small town by the port where they're all doing this together - it's about more than just phones, isn't it?
Ruby: it's kind of lovely to see kids just being okay with waiting instead of having screens in every pocket
Wexmarek: it's not that I think taking away phones is the solution to every problem, but seeing them just play without feeling like they're missing out is actually kind of refreshing. 👦
Amir: agree totally, kids need to learn patience and not just stare at screens all day
Fathom Mantis: Ved Sjøstrand sounds like some radical approach to childhood
