March with us on Sunday 18 May, 2pm Whitehall: for OUR CHILDREN!
Sign up/more info here: marchforchildren.uk
A few weeks ago, home educator Michelle wrote to me ‘with trepidation’ because she disagrees with my ideas on education.
But she and I have a goal in common: we demand action from our government!
Now is the time for us to reach across political/ideological divides, hold hands and march TOGETHER.
Whether you are an anti-smartphone campaigner or school leader against the schools bill or a parent worried about the lowering of standards, or a family devastated over VAT or just members of the public who care about kids…
Whoever you are… March with us!
Show them what we are made of.
Children are the future.
Fight for our children.
Fight for the future of our country.✊

You find Adolescence shocking because you aren’t in kids’ online worlds.
Kids already know this is happening.
Getting kids to watch Adolescence will make zero difference.
What you need to do as PM is ban phones to under 16s.

Our CEO @jasonelsom has written to the @SOSforEducation today asking for action on smartphones in schools. Just 14% of secondary schools have effective bans according to teenagers. We need urgent clarification from the @DFE

Today I’m launching my Private Members’ Bill - the Safer Phones Bill - to protect children from the harms that can be caused by excessive screen time, and the use of social media and other apps, many of them addictive by design.

“The disturbing prospect is the emergence of a two-tier society in which only wealthier children have access to the cognitive and emotional benefits of a reality-based upbringing.” Powerful from @j_amesmarriott thetimes.com/article/1dd7def…

Dear @bphillipsonMP I agree with every word of this. And more and more parents feel the same. The tech industry is destroying our children. And the schools are now complicit.

Listen to them.
Are we losing potential naturalists and rewilders, writers and artists, engineers and scientists to... screen time?
Quite possibly, given we've allowed big tech to steal their fruitful boredom. We can change this. Do your bit here bit.ly/3WOAbXJ

It's time to listen when our kids are saying things like this:
I can't control it
I wish I'd never had a phone
I wish I was drawing or playing outside
I've been wasting so much time
We can help them now 👉 bit.ly/3WOAbXJ

Imagine if our streets were so lawless that children regularly witnessed rapes & beheadings on the way to school & were propositioned daily for sex. This is not a horror movie: it’s the digital world that our children occupy. We must save kids from this online Wild West. A🧵1/16

Would you let your child answer the door late at night? Smartphones open the door to the world & almost a quarter of kids aged 5-7 have them. This is a serious safeguarding issue bbc.co.uk/news/technology-68…
