One of the preliminary findings of our @nettaweinstein.bsky.social and Vicki Nash on how young people experience parents' managing their digital lives is that communication is key for young people being on board and supportive of parents efforts. What better way to communicate than a GAME!

Was interested to hear about Tokyo Metropolitan Government's "plans to introduce a four-day workweek to ease the burden on families," but also ultimately skeptical that this will solve the issue of declining birth rates.
newsweek.com
Can Japan's four-day work week solve its birth rate crisis?
The solution requires a fundamental shift in workplace culture, not just more policies, according to an analyst.

Governments are pushing teen social media bans – but behind the scenes is a messy fight over science
Jonathan Haidt’s book The Anxious Generation has set governments against teen social media – and triggered a months-long debate among experts.
