Episode description

Today, On Deadline is looking at the growing concern about children using technology and social media too early in their life. You may have heard this phrase: iPad kids. A term used to define a generation of young Americans who many have said have grown too comfortable with a screen in front of their face instead of fresh air. While introducing kids to technology at a young age may have once been seen as giving them a head start, many are now wondering if it was a mistake. 'On Deadline' is hosted and produced by Lauren Barry. It's also produced by Joe Hiti, Christy Strawser and Myron Kaplan. Sound design by Joe Hiti.
