Australia gets it right

Interesting article in general, about the effect of social media on children, but I particularly appreciated his bluntness about Trump.

Then there’s Kevin Rudd, former Australian Prime Minister and current ambassador to the U.S., who was previously quoted calling Trump not only “the most destructive President in history” but also a “village idiot.”

I watched the entire interview and he was right on many things and I agree on social media because it's harmed so many minds and not just children.

He was also talking about the Ukraine and says Britain should lead the way and put boots on the ground and we shouldn't be relying on America.

And I'd agree with all of those points!

I think the UK should be doing something similar. Some schools in Scotland have started a locking their phones away system maybe we should start that.

Local high school is trialling that. Phones go in a pouch that’s sealed and then unsess as led at end of the day. It seems to be working fine.
