Adam (“Stehlin”) leads our discussion of Part 3: “The Great Rewiring: The Rise of the Phone-Based Childhood”  from The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness by Jonathan Haidt.

• Which of the 4 social harms the author describes can you relate to most as it relates to your relationship with your phone and social media? (0:42 - 18:42)
• What strikes you the most about the impacts of social media use on boys and girls, and how can you relate specifically to how it impacts boys and men? (18:43 - 43:38)
• What are some specific ways you’ve combated against letting your phone and other technologies affect your spiritual life? (43:39 - 56:41)
• The guys compare their average weekly screen time reports. See who uses their phone the most, and the least! (56:42 - 59:43)

Next week we’ll discuss Part 4 (chapters 9 - Conclusion): “Collection Action for Healthier Childhood” (pages 219 - 295).
