Jonathan Haidt on The Anxious Generation
Jonathan Haidt is a bestselling author and social psychologist at New York University\u2019s Stern School of Business. In his latest book, \u201cThe Anxious Generation\u201d, Haidt explores the alarming effects of excessive screen time on children, and what he calls \u201cthe great rewiring\u201d of children's brains as they move from a play-based childhood to a phone-based childhood. Haidt sat down with Hoda Kotb to talk about his plan for a healthier, freer childhood, and steps that parents, teachers and schools can take to end the epidemic of mental illness and restore a more humane childhood.
