Lynn Shaw discusses the urgent necessity of protecting children from the predatory nature of big tech and social media algorithms. Shaw argues that a decline in parental authority and structure has created a vacuum, allowing digital platforms to monetize youth vulnerabilities and effectively raise a generation within a "digital bubble." To combat this crisis, she advocates for a dual approach involving federal legislation like the Kids Online Safety Act and a return to proactive parenting that sets firm boundaries on screen time.
