The program discusses a voluntary agreement in Greystones, Ireland, for children to wait until secondary school age before getting a smartphone.
What is a good age to give a child a smartphone? A community in Ireland might have the answer. In Greystones there's a voluntary agreement to wait until secondary school age. We hear from the school principal who leads the "It Takes A Village" initiative, and a local parent. Also this week: a woman tells Shiona McCallum how surviving a late-night attack inspired her to develop a wearable safety device. And AI was let loose to run a cafe in Sweden. Find out what happened next. Presenter: Shiona McCallum Producer: Tom Quinn (Photo: A small group of boys and girls look at their smartphones. Credit: Getty Images)
