What do you think about young children having their own smartphones?
00:04
I don't think it's right, but it's necessary because kids, if they haven't got the same
00:09
clothes as other kids, they're getting bullied, they're getting carved names.
00:13
So they have to fit in.
00:15
Everyone is trying to fit in.
00:16
Buy your kids a phone that costs over £200 and you see them, all that, come on.
00:27
You see them do what you brought up yourself by your parents.
00:30
I think they should go out and play as well, have less time in the house watching telly.
00:39
You can educate yourself with a phone, but all these TikTok videos, they're no good.
00:46
And the kids are repeating what superstars say.
00:49
They think they're gods, like certain pop stars are gods to kids.
00:55
You have to wear the clothes.
00:56
You have to be skinny.
00:57
I know 14-year-old kids worrying about weight.
