In a detailed discussion on the impact of digital platforms on childhood development, Dr Annie Koshi & Dr Amit Sen argue that social media and AI cannot be equated with true education. They highlight the loss of ‘lived realities,’ noting that children now spend minimum three hours daily on gadgets, leading to stunted physical and social growth. The conversation explores the ‘rabbit hole’ of addiction, citing cases of children stealing money for online gaming and the lack of physical play spaces in cities like Delhi. The educator emphasizes the principle of frugality in parenting and criticizes the trend of using technology for assignments like podcasts and reels. The discussion concludes that while technology is pervasive, adults must take responsibility for the ‘unsafe world’ children are exposed to, advocating for a return to sensory, real-world experiences over illusory digital resources.
