The updside of kids limiting their own technology use
Author Min Jin Lee says she hopes kids will “resist the temptations” of using technology too much.
“I’ve talked to so many kids. They know when those things are bad for you,” she said.
“If other people aren’t going to help you, if the government will not regulate, then we have to regulate ourselves,” she added. “And there is an upside; the upside is that you’ll become stronger and more powerful.”
Lee, author of “Pachinko” and “Free Food for Millionaires,” continues her exploration of the Korean diaspora in her new novel, “American Hagwon.”
She joined Amna Nawaz for the latest episode of PBS News’ podcast, Settle In, to discuss her new book, her leap from corporate law to fiction and more.
