"Starfish, Screens, and Our Children's Future" | Carolina Perez- Stephens | TEDxFrutillar

Carolina Pérez Stephens emphasizes the critical role of human connection, storytelling, and early childhood development in an age dominated by screens. Through the story of "The Starfish Rescuer," she illustrates how even small, individual actions can make a profound difference. Carolina highlights the mental health crisis among adolescents, driven by social media and a lack of purpose. Drawing from neuroscience, she explains that children’s brains thrive on sensory experiences, exploration, and emotional connection, which are often replaced by overstimulating screens, leading to addiction and diminished critical thinking skills. Her message: we must collectively "rescue starfish" by fostering environments where children can grow, learn, and find meaning, ensuring a healthier, happier future. Fanatic of History, art, literature and education. Fight so that your children and your generation can develop in a healthy, normal and happy way, and hopefully in the future they can be a contribution to the country. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
