By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

MURTHY: “My kids are young and we're starting to have these discussions actually among parents in our school as well. But I would delay the use of social media for kids until at least after Middle School. I would also if your children are on social media, I would create tech free zones in their day to protect sleep, in-person interaction, and physical activity, that could look like not allowing technology at the dinner table, when you're eating together. It could look like taking technology away one hour before bedtime, and then giving it back to kids in the morning. But we need to do this.”
