9:54Now PlayingA powerful new video from Smartphone Free Childhood
Got friends who are on the fence about kids and smartphones? This film is for them.
We’ve teamed up with Anish, a former Facebook engineer turned SFC advocate, to create our very first explainer video – a deep, eye-opening look at the dilemma facing today’s parents.
In 10 minutes that pack a punch, Anish unpacks how smartphones and social media are designed to keep kids hooked, the secret techniques tech companies use to pull them in, and the impossible choice this leaves parents facing.
But this isn’t just about the problem. It’s about the solution too.
This video shows how change is already happening – with parents across the UK coming together to support one another, delay smartphones, and build a healthier childhood. The Smartphone Free Childhood movement is growing fast – and you can be part of it.
Thoughtful, clear, and made to be shared. Let’s get this message out there. 💥
