Psychologist Dr Aric Sigman is in New Zealand and has been in the news this week.
Aric Sigman is is a fellow of the Britain’s Royal Society of Medicine, and the author of a fabulous book called Remotely Controlled which discusses the danger of television viewing for children. (The danger is in the act of watching, rather than the content.)
Aric Sigman’s new book is Spoilt Generation and you can hear and watch him discuss his new book at any (or all) of the links below. I found myself nodding and ageing with him as I watched – it all seems so much *common sense*! 🙂
Anyway, here are the links for you.
