Description

Author and policy expert Clare Morell joins us to discuss her groundbreaking new book The Tech Exit: A Practical Guide to Freeing Kids and Teens from Smartphones. Drawing on years of research and firsthand accounts, Morell reveals how families have been misled into believing that tech dangers can be “managed” with parental controls—when in fact, the only real solution is a full-scale exit. She lays out a bold but doable roadmap for parents, schools, and communities to reclaim childhood, restore attention spans, and foster healthier human connection in a screen-saturated world.
