Social media has added a complex new layer to how we interact and learn online. It has really offered the first opportunity for users to directly influence the outcome on the platform in front of them. So, what kind of implications does that have for kids?
Today, I am joined by Kris Perry, Executive Director of Children and Screens. Kris most recently served as Senior Advisor to Governor Gavin Newsom of California and Deputy Secretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency, where she led the development of the California Master Plan for Early Learning and Care and expanded access to high-quality early childhood programs. Perry was also instrumental in restoring marriage equality to California following the landmark 2013 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Hollingsworth v. Perry, which she wrote about in her book, Love on Trial.
In our conversation, Kris and I delve into the research she is overseeing at Children and Screens, the mission of the Institute, and the implications of digital and social media on children's development.
