In 2012, when my kids were 3 and 4 years old, I was going to travel on a long international flight alone with them. I decided to buy them iPads so that I could download educational games, which could not connect to the internet. Then about one week into our trip, they were bored of those games. So we started downloading different games. And down the spiral we went. The iPads were such a convenient babysitter, and we choose to be oblivious to the dangers. Until one mom called me one day and told me that my daughter had a TikTok account. One year later, I started this blog.
