"When I ask 16-21 year olds what they wish their parents had known about social media, they say, number one, don’t give us phones and social media too young."
- Children's Commissioner for England, Rachel De Souza
As the first smartphone generation hits adulthood, they are reflecting on their lost wonder years, a precious period of their lives they can never get back. Too many of them regret a childhood wasted on screens and they wish their parents had set firmer boundaries.
Let's not repeat the mistake with the next generation.
Delay smartphones, delay social media, join the Heads Up Alliance family and secure for your younger children the gift of a full childhood.
Children's Commissioner for England
We dive into the heart of the HeadsUp Alliance, co-founded by Dany Elachi a burgeoning movement among Australian families committed to rethinking the role of technology in their children's lives. With the digital age advancing rapidly, these families have chosen a path less traveled, delaying the introduction of social media and smartphones to their children's daily routines.
Join us as we explore the philosophy and motivations behind the HeadsUp Alliance.
Whether you're a parent, educator, or simply interested in the intersection of technology and child development, this episode offers valuable insights into a community that's choosing to press pause on the digital rush, prioritizing real-world experiences and connections for the next generation.
Tune in to learn how the HeadsUp Alliance is making waves in Australia and potentially setting a new standard for children's digital consumption worldwide.
