    In this podcast episode, Angie Taylor and Mindy Hardin discuss the book 'Anxious Generation' by Jonathan Haidt and its implications for the use of technology by children. They explore the rise in anxiety, depression, and self-harming among Generation Z, particularly girls, since the advent of smartphones. They provide tips for parents on managing technology use, such as setting age and maturity-based restrictions, monitoring online activities, and creating space for offline activities. They also emphasize the importance of role modeling healthy technology habits and the need for quality sleep by keeping phones out of the bedroom.
