As seen on Tucker Carlson Tonight, insider.foxnews.com, 30 October 2018
After a New York Times report highlighted that Silicon Valley tech elites are keeping digital devices out of the schools of their children, Tucker Carlson said on Monday they're doing so because they know that "screens are poison."
Author and psychotherapist Tom Kersting said on Tucker Carlson Tonight that the idea that digital devices will benefit students has now proven to be "absolutely false."
He said that tech in the classroom is affecting kids' emotions, contributing to anxiety, depression and suicide.
"Maybe now we can educate other parents that aren't as aware as these Silicon Valley tech execs are."
The Times report by Nellie Bowles discusses a "digital divide" between children of wealthy parents and those of middle-class parents.
"It could happen that the children of poorer and middle-class parents will be raised by screens, while the children of Silicon Valley’s elite will be going back to wooden toys and the luxury of human interaction," Bowles wrote.
Carlson said that he was surprised that none of the tech elites are held accountable for pushing their products in less-wealthy schools.
"They never warn anybody about the threat that they clearly perceive," he said.
