Und wieso wird die Lufthansa mit einem Milliarden-Paket gerettet, während es an Schulen immer noch mit Luftfiltern und schnellem Internet hapert?

Walter Cronkite was the voice of the conflict, and grim, nightly statistics the most recognizable feature. But as involvement grew, Vietnam affected numerous changes in child life, comparable to the childhood impact of previous conflicts - chiefly the Civil War and World War II - whose intensity and duration also dominated American culture.

Doch all das ist kein Naturgesetz. Wie können wir das Verhältnis zu unseren Kindern so gestalten, dass sie ihre Potenziale frei entfalten können?

Linn—one of the world’s leading experts on the impact of Big Tech and big business on children—explores the roots and consequences of this monumental shift toward a digitized, commercialized childhood, focusing on kids’ values, relationships, and learning.
