“Tacit, routine expectations of everyday life are likely to be among the most powerful cultural experiences – especially because they are expected and unexamined by most participants” (Rogoff, p. 491). This made me ponder what the implicit social cues we are sending to children when adults are constantly on their phones (taking photos, checking email, posting to social media). Even if parents ensure that they have placed media/technology restrictions on their child, what values and scripts are they signaling to their children when they are constantly engaged with their devices?
