  • Coding for kindergartners. Ontario's revamped school curriculum may include coding. It comes as experts warn about excessive screen time. Do you think kindergarten is too young for coding?

  • New York declares social media as a public health hazard. Mayor Eric Adams calls it an 'environmental toxin', comparing the designation to a surgeon general warning on tobacco or guns. Do you think social media is a public health hazard?
