Gen Y and Z - Born to be Digital

The Internet. It’s our gateway to a wealth of knowledge and social connection. From the invention of the world-wide web in 1990, to the current day, technology has taken the world by storm and in some ways taken over our lives. Almost all teenagers and around 2/3 of primary school kids now have their own mobile screen-based device, spending as many as 5 hours a day on social media, texting, video chatting, viewing content, and playing multi-platform video games. In this program we uncover research on the impact all of this technology is having on our lives and on our kid’s mental health.
