Story1
Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, digital technologies had become deeply embedded in children’s lives, despite a growing body of research detailing the harms of excessive immersion in the unregulated, powerfully seductive, profit-driven world of the “kid-tech” industry. In Who’s Raising the Kids? 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.

Story3
A holiday classic by Charles Dickens. Originally published in 1843, Dickens worried about the disparity between the wealthy and the impoverished, and it was his attempt to bring this disparity into the light of day, to appeal to the die-hard capitalists to take care of the downtrodden masses. Since this inequity continues, this story is still popular, and will probably continue to be so for the foreseeable future.

The hidden science addicting kids... stealing childhood “It’s just a game”… “Social media is how kids talk today”… “Online video is just like TV” If these claims are true, why can’t kids look up from their screens? Why are children and teens turning their backs on family, school, the outdoors, and all things real world to live on phones and video game players? Richard Freed, a child and adolescent psychologist, reveals why in his book Better Than Real Life, as he unveils Silicon Valley’s secret science of persuasive design.

Emma ist erst vier Jahre alt, aber ihre Datenspur im Internet reicht schon viel weiter zurück. Bereits das erste Ultraschallbild haben ihre Eltern bei Instagram gepostet. Der Kinderwagen hat 2000 Euro gekostet. Museum, Zoo, Kindertheater, Frühenglisch und Karatekurs – all das muss Emma mit vier schon erlebt haben. Statt ihr Kind zu erziehen, überschütten die Eltern es mit Liebe, Geschenken und Optimierungen. Erzieher berichten, dass viele Kinder heute später trocken werden, nur in 2-Wort-Sätzen sprechen oder sich nicht selbst anziehen können.

Every year thousands of children fall through the cracks in our society and become victims of a destructive cycle that ends in exploitation, violence, and lost life chances.

When Sara Zaske moved from Oregon to Berlin with her husband and toddler, she was surprised to discover that German parents give their children a great deal of freedom. In Berlin, kids walk to school by themselves, ride the subway alone, cut food with sharp knives and even play with fire. German parents did not share her parental fears, and their children were thriving.

Las infancias son libres. Deben serlo. En esta serie volvemos a ser niñes gracias a ensayos escritos con las manos, pero también con el corazón, tomando la ternura radical como fuerza erradicadora del adultocentrismo. En infancias libres hacemos dos manifiestos por les niñes, honramos a las infancias diversas, a aquellas que injustamente han perdido su libertad; pero también, a las infancias que crecieron, como muchxs de nosotrxs, lastimadxs. Así, formulamos un diccionario de la no violencia para por fin dar a les niñes el lugar que merecen.

Attracting tens of thousands of men and women hoping to strike it rich, the Klondike gold rush brought with it a frenzy of activity unlike anything the world had ever seen. The few children who lived in Dawson City and its surrounding mining camps had front-row seats to this treasure hunt of the century - and to all the antics that a lust for gold brought with it. In this, her companion book to the best-selling Women of the Klondike, Frances Backhouse explores the experiences of the children who followed their parents north in search of fortune or were born in the goldfields.

Kellerman explores the "nature v. nurture" theory, discusses the legal and psychological ramifications of treating such children as adult criminals, and tackles the assertion that violence in the media is to blame.
