In the national conversation about parenting and phone-based childhood, the perspective of one group of Americans is often underrepresented in the data: kids.
This March, Lenore Skenazy, Zach Rausch, and Jonathan Haidt collaborated with the Harris Poll to survey more than 500 children ages 8 to 12, to bring into focus a more comprehensive picture of American childhood through the eyes of the people living it. Their findings, as they reported in an article for The Atlantic, showed not only how childhood has changed in recent years, but also how to make it better.
