Live with Katie Couric!
Interview with Jonathan Haidt, author of the anxious generation!
I got chills and was moved to tears during this Live with Katie Couric interview with Jonathan Haidt, author of The Anxious Generation, and a brand new graphic novel he created for tweens with Catherine Price (author of How to Break Up with Your Phone), called The Amazing Generation! The Anxious Generation delivered such potency, mothers around the world have taken it up as a rallying cry, and are changing policies from homes to school districts to nations - such as Australia’s recent law setting age sixteen as the minimum age for social media!
This interview emphasizes so much of what TFA is all about - setting childhood free again - for free play and time outside, stretching and growing physically, mentally, emotionally and relationally, connecting synapses, supporting creativity, competency, joy and fulfillment. - Tiffanie Pope, mom and TFA Director
