Is TikTok Your Kid’s Biggest Bully?
Manage episode 410385205 series 3290931
Utah Gov. Spencer Cox wants kids to spend less time on social media, and the state has enacted laws to restrict access for minors. But out of all the issues impacting Utah children — homelessness, food insecurity, environmental crises — why focus on how much time teens spend on their phones? Aimee Winder Newton, director of Utah’s Office of Families, joins host Ali Vallarta to explain why this is a priority for her office and what the state is doing about it.
