The happiness of young people has taken a big hit since the
advent of the smartphone - and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt
argues that there is a direct link. He warns that allowing
children easy access to the internet and social media adversely
impacts their sleep, their self-esteem and even how their brains
develop.

Jonathan explains the dangers he sees in letting kids use
smartphones, while Jill Murphy of Common Sense Media suggests
ways parents can navigate introducing tech into children's
lives.

This series on parenting coincides with Dr Laurie's new free
online class, The Science of Wellbeing for Parents which is
available now at Coursera.org. You can sign up
