Kate Winslet Ain't Got Time For Social Media

Kate Winslet recently sat down for an interview with the Sunday Times, where she talked about banning social media for her children. The publication quotes her as follows:

"It has a huge impact on young women’s self-esteem, because all they ever do is design themselves for people to like them. And what comes along with that? Eating disorders. And that makes my blood boil. And is the reason we don’t have any social media in our house. Let your kids climb trees. Take the device out of their hands. Play Monopoly! You go to a cafe and grown-ups are at one end of the table and children the other, on devices, not looking up. It takes every member of a family to be a member, and there are too many interruptions these days — and devices are a huge interruption.”
