New evidence from over 6,000 college students finds that digital devices are bad for academic performance and even effect peers in negative ways! Mobile app use reduces grades, increases stress, and lowers class attendance, job applications, and wages coming out of school. It…

May be the #1 parenting mistake of the past 20 years: parents treating iPads/tablets like mini-televisions. iPads/Tablets significantly damage a child’s brain. How can we stop parents from giving their child tablets? What can be done to get schools to stop using tablets?
Two more studies show that when young people quit or reduce social media for as little as one week, their anxiety/depression drops. One (with no control group) was written up in the NYT: nytimes.com/2025/11/24/hea… The other, much more rigorous, was conducted by Meta and then…
As a university professor who uses Dr. Haidt's literature in my media effects class, the evidence is mounting in support of banning phones, tablets, and laptops in the classroom. In my classrooms, I'm seeing a slow return to the classic method of note-taking.
There is more and more evidence that putting computers and tablets on students' desks (1:1 devices) was a terrible mistake. I agree with @AdamMGrant that "it's time to remove laptops [and tablets] from classrooms."
Bingeing TikTok reels may be hazardous to your well-being. 71 studies, >98k people: The more short-form videos teens and adults watched, the more they struggled with attention, self-control, and stress and anxiety. Read a book. Watch a movie. Long live longform.
More reports of this lovely side effect seen in newly phone-free schools: Big increases in students coming into the library and ... checking out books! A report from Oklahoma: nationalreview.com/corner/anecdat… and one from Kentucky: washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2025…
Great report on the national security threat from TikTok, and short-form video in general. These damage cognitive development in the West, while China protects its kids. Australia is the best model for USA: delay to 16 chinarussiareport.substack.com/p/short-form-v… via @AtlanticCouncil writers:

Six years ago, my daughter walked to school on her own for the first time (age 9). It was the start of a flowering of independence. My eternal thanks to @FreeRangeKids, who inspired me to let her do it. She wrote about the decision parents face, here: letgrow.org/jonathan-haidt…
