What is the one thing Silicon Valley executives refuse to give their own children?

And why did the rest of us hand it to toddlers without a second thought?
In this video, we confront the uncomfortable truth behind the iPad Kid—the glazed stare, the withdrawal tantrums, the vanishing ability to tolerate boredom—and why, in 2026, parents around the world are quietly revolting against Big Tech.

This isn’t nostalgia. This isn’t anti-technology panic.
This is about neurology, childhood development, and the line between a tool and a drug.

CHAPTER TIMELINE
00:00 – Intro  
02:37 – Chapter 1: Digital Fentanyl  
05:15 – Chapter 2: The Expensive Silence  
07:43 – Chapter 3: The Silicon Valley Hypocrisy  
10:13 – Chapter 4: The Analog Rebellion (The Solution)  
13:00 – Conclusion: Embrace the Withdrawal 

We break down:
- Why modern screens are nothing like the cartoons we grew up with
- How algorithms hijack dopamine pathways in developing brains
- The Silicon Valley hypocrisy no one likes to talk about
- Why boredom is not a problem—but a biological necessity
- What the Analog Rebellion actually looks like in real life
- How to survive the withdrawal phase and hold the line

This video is for parents who feel something is wrong but haven’t had the language—or the courage—to say it out loud.

The era of the iPad pacifier is over.

The Analog Kid is back.

If you’re ready to brick the tablet, reclaim boredom, and rebuild imagination, you’re in the right place.

Silicon Valley Parents Don't Give Their Kids iPads. Here's What They Know.

3 days ago
This video reveals why the era of gentle parenting negotiation is officially dead, how we confused "respecting our children" with "fearing our children" and turned our living rooms into the United Nations, why the customer service model of parenting made us treat every tantrum like a bad Yelp review, and how the "gentle parenting aesthetic" was a luxury product sold by influencers with help they never showed on camera.

This is for parents who are exhausted, resentful, and ready to take their houses back. Your child is not your peer. They're a small, chaotic human who needs a leader, not a lawyer.

The Gentle Parenting SCAM: Why It's Making You Resent Your Kids

1 weeks ago
This video reveals what happens when we interrupt struggle before it completes, why "hard" became an emergency requiring immediate response, how children learn that hesitation brings negotiation and tears rewrite reality, and why we've turned discomfort into a fire alarm that must be silenced. 
You'll discover how the cost doesn't show up as a broken child but as a stalled one, why resilience isn't a belief but a body's memory of what it survived, how removing struggle to reduce suffering creates people who suffer more from smaller things, and why life doesn't negotiate — it just applies pressure.

You'll learn why children who can describe their feelings perfectly still collapse when emotions refuse to leave on schedule, how "almost" becomes a lifestyle when adults keep interrupting the sentence of struggle mid-word, why calibration only comes from staying inside hard moments long enough to discover you survive them, and how the lie hiding inside "care" is this: struggle is harmful, and if a child struggles, something is wrong.
