In today's episode of Moving Offline, we delve into the critical topic of why parents should delay giving smartphones to their children. I'm joined by guest expert Hannah Oertel , and together we explore the extensive evidence highlighting the potential harms of early smartphone and social media exposure, especially for children.

Hannah shares insights into the alarming impacts on physical health, such as spinal and eyesight problems, as well as mental health issues like increased anxiety and exposure to harmful content. She emphasizes the importance of gradually introducing technology, using simpler devices as stepping stones before finally allowing access to smartphones.

Tune in to learn more about how you can support your child's healthy development in a tech-saturated world.
