I don’t have kids yet but I’ve been thinking about this problem a lot. I personally don’t consider a no screen policy a very good idea, especially in the Information Age. After all, the technology is not a problem here. Instead, I’m building an intranet with an in-house search engine and a video streaming service which I’m going to populate with Wikipedia articles, my fairly decent collection of non-fiction books, some of world best fiction, movies, music etc. Besides that, no internet access for minors in my house. My fight is not with profanity or obscenity but with tasteless garbage like all that clickbaity ad-filled batshit YouTube is pushing onto me.
