Spanish Smartphone Revolt

Synopsis

In Barcelona's Poblenou neighborhood, a grassroots movement is advocating for a smartphone-free adolescence for children. Parents are increasingly concerned about the impact of smartphones on mental health and online safety, prompting them to take action. The initiative is gaining momentum across Spain, as families share their motivations and experiences. By highlighting this resistance to smartphone dependency, the movement reflects broader challenges faced by parents in navigating youth development in a technology-driven society.
