00:00What's your thoughts on kids using the smart phones?
00:06Well I suppose it's a generational thing isn't it? When I was a kid you didn't have a phone even.
00:11So nowadays most kids in school have got tablets.
00:15I mean my grandchild is three. I'd hate to see him on a smart phone.
00:20Because I think it would stymie his getting on, learning things if he just got a phone.
00:29And people who shouldn't be on the phone all the time are just brainless, witless, they can't think.
00:35So yeah, it's not a good idea.
00:38I think it's alarming, it's worrying.
00:42The fact that they have access to social media so young and it's very distracting.
00:46It's affecting their attention span.
00:49I mean as an adult it's affecting me.
00:51So imagine what it does to children's brains.
00:53I can't even imagine because no studies have been made I guess now.
00:56But yeah, it's crazy.
00:59Thanks for watching!
