Ep. 135: Evolution of Shopping & Apps Temu and Shein


Listen Later

Shopping has not only moved from malls to the internet, it has also evolved from being a pattern of socialization to a game-show-style transaction. As Brave Parenting continues to evaluate the ways media and technology have changed how people live, communicate, and relate, today’s look at shopping and the massively popular app Temu provides excellent context.  Be sure to check out our Brave Parenting Guide to Temu at braveparenting.net for more information.
