Thanks Teddy. As parents, it's hard to remember to step out of our own lenses and anxieties and see a kid's POV, especially when tech changes so rapidly. However, making that effort helps you empathize with how they value an activity. What seems like a waste of time to parents might have important social or self-esteem implications to a kid. Sometimes what seems like a bad thing is really not (and probably vice versa.)
This was interesting. Whitney and I talk a lot how we think we'll parents our future kid(s) regarding technology, social media etc.
We got a lot to think about and prepare.
