Screen For Joy: Protecting Kids Online

If young people were living online before the pandemic, it’s hard to deny their lives are even more firmly intertwined with the web now that COVID-19 has changed the world so fundamentally. For many young people in their tweens, teens and twenties, it’s become more difficult to separate their online lives from the real world now that school, work, friendships and relationships are conducted almost exclusively online through platforms like Zoom, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok and soon, the Metaverse. In season one of C Suite, Claudette sat down with several experts and young people to discuss the current challenges associated with youth and the online world. In this episode, Claudette is highlighting previously unreleased clips from these earlier episodes about the issues facing young people and the online world today.
