Author and reporter, Anya Kamenetz is back on the podcast to talk about her new book The Stolen Year: How Covid Changed Children's Lives, And Where We Go Now. The Stolen Year is a powerful look at how the pandemic disrupted children's lives — their learning, mental health, and overall well-being. The Stolen Year isn't written specifically for parents of differently wired children, but I thought it was important to really explore what the research and data shows the cost of the past two years has been for our most valuable resource – our children, as well as consider the question – where do we go from here?During our conversation we talked about the trends on decreasing graduation rates, the impact of food scarcity on children and adolescents, and caregiver depression. We also talked about the kinds of resources families need to recover from the pandemic, especially within marginalized communities and more severely impacted populations, and much more. Anya Kamenetz has covered education for many years, including for NPR, where she also co-created the podcast Life Kit:Parenting in partnership with Sesame Workshop.Kamenetz is the author of several acclaimed nonfiction books: Generation Debt ; DIY U ; The Test: Why Our Schools Are Obsessed With Standardized Testing, But You Don't Have To Be, and The Art of Screen Time: How Your Family Can Balance Digital Media and Real Life.Things you'll learn from this episodeWhat the long-lasting effects of COVID in children's lives are according to Anya's researchWhere we should be focusing our energy — our kids' learning loss or their mental health and wellbeingThe trends on decreasing graduation rates and how that might play out in the next few years for young peopleWhether experts consider the pandemic to be an ACE (adverse childhood experience)The impact of food scarcity on children during COVIDWhat resources families need to recover from the pandemic, especially for marginalized communitiesResources mentioned for the impact of COVID on childrenAnya Kamenetz's websiteThe Stolen Year: How Covid Changed Children's Lives, and Where We Go Now by Anya KamenetzAnya Kamenetz Talks About Her Book, The Art of Screentime (Tilt Parenting podcast)The Art of Screen Time: How Your Family Can Balance Digital Media and Real Life by Anya KamenetzSupport the showConnect with Tilt Parenting Visit Tilt Parenting Take the free 7-Day Challenge Read a chapter of Differently Wired Follow Tilt on Twitter & Instagram
We discussed a few things including:1. Anya's career journey2. Her books: Generation Debt; DIY U; The Test; The Art of Screen Time3. Her current focus and book on the pandemic's affect4.

She's been a senior staff writer for Fast Company magazine, contributed to the New York Times, Washington Post, New York Magazine, and has won multiple awards for her reporting on education, technology, and innovation. In her new book, THE STOLEN YEAR Anya follows five diverse families from around the country from Spring 2020 to Spring 2021. She also dives deep into the political history that brought us to this point: Why we have no childcare system to speak of, how children became the group of Americans most likely to live in poverty, how we over police and separate families of color, and how we are content to let the unpaid and underpaid labor of women, especially women of color and immigrants, stand in for a void of public and collective concern for children.https://www.amazon DOT com/Stolen-Year-COVID-Changed-Childrens/dp/1541700988She is the author of four books: Generation Debt, DIY U, The Test, and The Art of Screen Time. She lives in Brooklyn with her family.
It is undisputed that COVID-19 has wreaked havoc on all of us, worldwide. Job juggling, The Great Resignation, social justice, Black Lives Matter, our health, and overall peace of mind- but more than anything, our CHILDREN- what about the children? Not one of us has escaped this mess unscathed. In her new book, The Stolen Year (due out August 23, 2022) National Public Radio reporter, Anya Kamenetz shares with Jess and Jess her research around the American education system as "the biggest, most reliable social welfare institution for 50 million children" and how it failed our children during the pandemic. Kids don't stop developing, even though the world stopped for a time. And now, we have some things to sort out. Anya follows five families across the US as they endure the first year of the pandemic. Her findings and reflections make for interestingly jolting conversation, and the book is a must read as we head back into the school year, still dealing with the past, present and future of COVID.Meet Anya:Anya Kamenetz is an education correspondent for NPR.

What is the future of education after the coronavirus? What will schools look like after all this? How can they reopen safely? Will colleges go bankrupt? Are we rotting the brains of our kids with all this screen time? Where is Education Secretary Betsy DeVos? What happens now to education in America? As the global war against the virus continues, the world of education is a hidden battlefield. The future of learning has been turned upside down--and underreported. With 97% of the world’s schools closed, the virus has upended everything we know about education. Graduations are canceled, dorms are empty, school lunches are left uneaten and millions of kids are now glued to screens all day long. This is education in our pandemic-stricken world. And the stakes for America couldn’t be higher. Angry Americans continues our groundbreaking focus on the front-line fighters of the war against COVID-19 with another inspiring guest shaping the future: [1:15:00] Anya Kamenetz (@Anya1Anya) is a powerful expert on learning and the future.

Murrow award for Innovation.

Each week The Front Page takes you behind the scenes of the biggest story from the New Zealand Herald and Newstalk ZB. Today it's why the SkyCity fire raged so far out of control, and what to expect next. Hosted by Frances Cook.More than 100,000 New Zealand student loan borrowers are living overseas, and some now say they feel trapped there, unable to even come home for funerals. Hundreds have made the decision to declare bankruptcy, while others have taken the risk of coming home, and been arrested at the airport. Others have stayed in New Zealand, but put off having children or buying a home, saying they simply can't afford it. The Herald's Simon Collins looked into the problem for the Generation Debt series, and took us behind the scenes for the latest Front Page podcast.

Author of Generation Debt and The Art of Screen Time, Anya Kamenetz drops into the studio for a mindful chat on healthy tech consumption. A big believer in the Michael Pollan school of thought, she applies his theory to her relationship with technology, and we’re on board. We promise this ep will be a worthy use of today’s screen time.
At the end of October, the New York Times ran a series of articles on kids, parents, and screentime. It looked at trends among parents, largely around the Silicon Valley in California. When I read Anya Kamenetz's response in the Columbia Journalism Review, titled What the Times Got Wrong About Kids and Phones, I had to reach out and see if she'd be willing to talk. I think her perspective on this issue is extremely important.Anya Kamenetz is NPR's lead education blogger. She joined NPR in 2014, working as part of a new initiative to coordinate on-air and online coverage of learning.Kamenetz is the author of several books. Her latest is The Art of Screen Time: How Your Family Can Balance Digital Media and Real Life (PublicAffairs, 2018).Her previous books were Generation Debt; DIY U: Edupunks, Edupreneurs, and the Coming Transformation of Higher Education, and The Test.Kamenetz covered technology, innovation, sustainability, and social entrepreneurship for five years as a staff writer for Fast Company magazine. She's contributed to The New York Times, The Washington Post, New York Magazine, Slate, and O, the Oprah Magazine, and appeared in documentaries shown on PBS and CNN.It's worth noting that in addition to the rock stardom above, she's a parent, and someone who, admittedly, is dealing with the stuff in real time. If you take nothing else from this episode, if you don't read her book or the many links that I drop in the show notes for this episode (available on our facebook page facebook/nosuchthingpodcast) pretty please, use your instincts as a parent, consult educators and specialists who know technology on this topic, talk with doctors who really want to dig in about what's fears are real and which are not. Take the time to do your homework, and make plan that fits what you're looking to each achieve at home, in your classroom, or with the young people you serve, wherever that is. And talk to the young people in your life. Preaching tech abstinence comes from a good place - we want children safe and productive - but don't be suckered by the temptation to conflate all that's changing for us culturally, don't trust non-expert voices because they seem elite, and don't miss out on all that's there in the upside.Links from this episode:Columbia Journalism Review - What the Times got wrong about kids and phones: https://www.cjr.org/criticism/times-silicon-valley-kids.phpTHE ART OF SCREEN TIME: HOW YOUR FAMILY CAN BALANCE DIGITAL MEDIA AND REAL LIFE: http://www.anyakamenetz.net/NYTimes, A Dark Consensus Begins to Emerge About Kids and Phones in Silicon Valley: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/26/style/phones-children-silicon-valley.htmlSilicon Valley Nannies Are Phone Police for Kids: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/26/style/silicon-valley-nannies.html?module=inlineAnya's Newsletter: https://tinyletter.com/AnyaKamenetz/subscribeAnya on Twitter: https://twitter.com/anya1anya See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

After we released our two-part series on student loan debt earlier this summer, we got a lot of emails from you. In addition to your stories, you also had questions about your loans: about what concrete steps you can take to pay them off smartly, and if you're not in school yet, about whether it's worth it to go into debt for college in the first place. One listener wrote in about his shared debt with his wife: "We are continually putting off having children because we realize we really can't afford it. We are concerned about the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program still existing by the time we can have our loans forgiven. We found ourselves unable to be approved for a loan to buy a home because of our extreme debt. The situation is so overwhelming to us." So this week, we're gathering several student debt experts to take your calls live, and help you sort through some of the big questions that you have about loans. In this first of two live call-in shows, we're joined by Rohit Chopra, a Senior Fellow at the Consumer Federation of America; Tressie McMillan Cottom, Assistant Professor of Sociology at Virginia Commonwealth University and the author of Lower Ed: The Troubling Rise of For-Profit Colleges in the New Economy; and Anya Kamenetz, lead education blogger at NPR and the author of Generation Debt. And we talk about the changing face of student loans under the Trump administration, about the communities hardest hit by the student loan crisis, and about how to decide if going into debt is the right choice for parents and kids. After listening to this episode, listen to part two of our student loan call-in series. Looking for the website that Rohit Chopra mentioned about help with public service loan forgiveness? It's here: http://forgivemystudentdebt.org/.
This week on the show, we're talking about how to get Generation Debt back on track. Insurer LV= has published some new research which has found renters among the late-Millennial generation (25-34 years old) are one of the least financially resilient groups in the UK. Based on research conducted with over 9,000 people, the first instalment of LV=’s ‘Income Roulette’ research found that more than half (55%) of 25-34 year olds fall short of the Money Advice Service (MAS) recommended amount of savings to be financially resilient. Resilience can be defined as someone who has 90 days’ worth of outgoings in savings, however the research found that a third (34%) of late-Millennials could only survive for one month or less if they lost their income. These figures are even more pronounced for renters of this age, who make up almost half (45%) of the group. Two-thirds (65%) of 25-34 year olds who rent don’t have the level of savings specified by MAS – almost double the national average (37%) – and 45% could only cope for one month or less without their income. In addition, more than two in five (44%) aren’t confident in their ability to handle a personal financial crisis, again far higher than the UK average (33%).
