This episode has two segments: a discussion of some Indian research about mindfulness and screen addiction, and an interview with Dr Fae Heaselgrave about her PhD research on mothers’ digital care work.
How is digital care divided in your home? What could industry or government change to make it more manageable for you?
We’ll be back in 2 weeks with another paperround, another zoomout, and a review of a Robert Downey Jnr movie (yes, it’s OK for kids, we promise). Why not subscribe, and you’ll get an email when it drops?
