This is the first time in our history that children have had the greatest preponderance of ideas, opinions, values and - most importantly - images delivered as a takeaway directly to their eyes and ears, without the knowledge and mediation of their parents. There have never been so many influences “speaking” freely to our children out of earshot. Such an imbalance has profound and worrying consequences.
