Care and Feeding | Slate's parenting show - What Counts as Screentime?

On this episode: Zak, Lucy and Elizabeth chat about screentime. We’ve got two great questions that are variations on the theme: are podcasts screentime? And you missing out on something if your little ones don’t get to watch a certain children’s YouTuber? We’ll discuss.After that, we’re circling up for a round of triumphs and fails, because why not?
