Mission Disconnect

Screens are everywhere, invade us, curb the imagination and influence relationships with friends and family, but also the time devoted to sport and leisure. An observer of digital uses for more than twenty years, Laurence Bril goes around the subject with clarity: news or intox, online friends, impact on health, harassment, etc. She invites children to ask themselves the right questions: “How much time do you spend in front of a screen? To do what? And what does it get you? But above all, she offers solutions so that children learn to make their own choices and avoid getting carried away ever more, at the risk of addictive behavior. The author also addresses the other facet of the digital problem: the pollution generated, of which children are often unaware. What about the carbon footprint of digital and e-waste? How to sail better to pollute less? In this little guide, there are games, a quiz, but also tests to do as a family, to better understand, find yourself and become master of your digital life. Life without filters is great too! From the age of 8 Digital technology is increasingly present in the lives of our children. So much so that in a few years screens have become the most frequent cause of argument with their parents. And if they pollute our lives, they also pollute the planet.
