[00:00:07] back in the late edition, thank you for joining us on France 24 and
[00:00:11] France Info. Here are the headlines of the newspaper:
[00:00:14] Ukraine says it lacks anti-aircraft defense to fight against Russian ballistic
[00:00:18] missiles. Volodymyr Zelensky points the finger at the Middle
[00:00:21] East wars, you will hear him. We will update you on the latest
[00:00:24] attacks. In Germany, a drone with an explosive device
[00:00:28] was discovered at an airport. It operated not far from a Ukrainian plane. This is an unprecedented
[00:00:32] hybrid attack scenario that worries the Germans. Another drone
[00:00:36] damaged a
[00:00:39] I see it in children of plane. Iran says it has agreed with Oman on a
[00:00:42] new shipping lane in the Strait of Hormuz, but this will also
[00:00:45] depend on Washington's
[00:00:48] the southwest of actions, Tehran threatens.
[00:01:02] Last night was particularly deadly in
[00:01:05] Kyiv with 17 dead, strikes that destroyed logistical
[00:01:08] sites and warehouses. The anti-aircraft defense was able to shoot down
[00:01:12] the hundred drones launched by the Russians, but not the thirty
[00:01:16] ballistic missiles that struck and caused fires.
[00:01:19] The Ukrainian army lacks defensive weapons, deplores
[00:01:22] Volodymyr Zelensky. Details with Alice
[00:01:25] Broga.
[00:01:28] After more than 20 hours of searching, Ukrainian rescuers
[00:01:31] extract a lifeless body from the rubble. A civilian killed
[00:01:35] in a Russian strike that occurred the day before on this building in
[00:01:38] Kramatorsk. Faced with the multiplication of Russian attacks, the
[00:01:42] authorities of this city in the Donetsk region in eastern Ukraine
[00:01:46] ordered on Wednesday evening the evacuation of about 500
[00:01:49] children and their families who still lived in the city. In the
[00:01:53] Kyiv region too, attacks are increasingly numerous and
[00:01:56] deadly. Along this railway, the chemicals.
[00:02:20] asked the Ministry of
[00:02:30] And then I saw people covered in blood running in the street.
[00:02:34] According to the Ukrainian army, Russia fired 115 long-range
[00:02:38] drones and 28 missiles on Tuesday night to
[00:02:41] Wednesday, but only 98 drones could be neutralized. Ukrainian anti-aircraft
[00:02:45] defenses failed to intercept any
[00:02:48] missiles. A weakening attributed by President Zelensky to
[00:02:52] delays in missile interceptor deliveries compared to
[00:02:56] 2025.
[00:03:00] receive about three times fewer anti-ballistic missiles to defend our
[00:03:03] state. This situation is mainly linked to the
[00:03:06] war, or as it is now right to say,
[00:03:10] to hostilities and wars in the
[00:03:12] Middle East.
[00:03:15] Last week, Volodymyr
[00:03:18] 8 p.m. This is the end of this news report, thank you for Zelensky had again gone to Washington to convince Donald
[00:03:20] Trump to deliver Patriot missiles, the only ones capable
[00:03:24] of intercepting the most powerful Russian missiles, but according to the
[00:03:27] Financial Times, Trump refused this request due to
[00:03:31] the shortage of Patriots in American stocks since the
[00:03:35] beginning of the war in the
[00:03:35] Middle East.
[00:03:39] And we continue this news report with this drone packed with explosives discovered in
[00:03:42] a German airport, Leipzig Halle. The device reportedly did not
[00:03:46] explode due to a technical issue. This event is not attributed to Russia
[00:03:50] at this stage, but it is nevertheless qualified as a major
[00:03:54] security incident by the German Interior Minister. An anti-terrorist
[00:03:56] investigation has been opened. The details from Marion.
[00:04:02] a demining robot inspects the tarmac of Leipzig Airport in the middle of the night.
[00:04:05] A drone equipped with explosives has just
[00:04:09] been spotted just a few meters from these Antonov Airlines
[00:04:12] planes, a Ukrainian cargo
[00:04:15] company. Shortly after, a
[00:04:19] DHL aircraft collides in mid-flight with a flying object. The plane had
[00:04:22] just been diverted following the closure of the airport, it is
[00:04:26] fortunately only slightly damaged. Berlin
[00:04:29] denounces a possible hybrid attack, a threat
[00:04:32] taken extremely
[00:04:34] seriously.
[00:04:38] I fully understand the intuition
[00:04:41] depressive disorders, decreased that these threats are not the work of amateurs, they require,
[00:04:44] on the contrary, a very professional
[00:04:48] preparation
[00:04:48] and execution.
[00:04:52] This represents a new level of threat. Why is this
[00:04:56] incident so worrying? Leipzig
[00:04:59] Airport is a key logistical hub for NATO, it allows
[00:05:03] the transport of equipment and civilians to Ukraine, which Berlin
[00:05:06] has actively supported since the beginning of the Russian invasion. So, according to
[00:05:10] the Ukrainian ambassador in Germany, the responsibility for this incident
[00:05:14] undoubtedly lies with Moscow. Berlin mentions the
[00:05:17] possible involvement of foreign powers. An anti-terrorist
[00:05:21] investigation has been
[00:05:22] opened.
[00:05:25] Developments this time in the Middle East with new exchanges of strikes on the
[00:05:29] southern border of Lebanon. The Israeli army carried out operations following
[00:05:33] a ceasefire violation by Hezbollah. A Lebanese state
[00:05:36] media reports one dead and 11 injured. And
[00:05:40] yet, there are negotiations taking place right now in Rome between
[00:05:43] Lebanese and Israelis in the presence of Americans for the
[00:05:47] deployment of pilot zones, explanation by Claire Dieu Hamel from
[00:05:51] Jerusalem: Israel says it targeted the
[00:05:55] roof of a building that was in a
[00:05:58] cemetery in the city of Tebnin, a targeted strike
[00:06:01] therefore, say the Israelis, which is part
[00:06:05] of a response to a presumed ceasefire violation by Hezbollah, that is at least
[00:06:09] what the Israelis say, who speak of a blatant violation but do not provide
[00:06:13] more details. And then for the first time in several weeks, a little
[00:06:16] earlier in the day, Israel had issued an evacuation
[00:06:20] order for another village in southern Lebanon that is
[00:06:23] nearby, a village where civilians had been able to return
[00:06:27] as the Israeli army withdrew. These strikes
[00:06:31] in southern Lebanon are part of a context of negotiations taking
[00:06:34] place right now in Rome between the Israeli state and the
[00:06:38] Lebanese state, this is the 7th round of negotiations that
[00:06:41] provides, in particular, for the deployment
[00:06:45] of the Lebanese army in pilot zones evacuated by the
[00:06:48] Israeli army, this is the objective of these negotiations, but these negotiations
[00:06:52] are extremely difficult, especially since the main belligerent is not
[00:06:56] part of them, Hezbollah, which has refused these negotiations since the
[00:06:59] beginning. Naim Qassem, the secretary general of the Shiite movement, said
[00:07:02] today, and I quote, that these negotiations brought nothing but
[00:07:06] shame, humiliation and successive compromises. In this
[00:07:09] context, we can clearly see the limits of these negotiations, which for the moment
[00:07:13] have not achieved the objective of disarming
[00:07:16] Hezbollah.
[00:07:19] There will be an agreement between Iran and Oman concerning a passage in the Strait
[00:07:22] of Hormuz that would give Tehran control over the entry of ships into the
[00:07:26] Gulf, according to the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a
[00:07:30] communiqué detailing the agreement is well on its way to being finalized. Listen to this
[00:07:33] spokesperson for the Iranian
[00:07:34] regime.
[00:07:39] At this stage, all topics have been discussed. The
[00:07:42] map, the transit routes, the entry and exit of maritime
[00:07:46] traffic and the bilateral agreement with
[00:07:49] Oman.
[00:07:54] We have made enormous progress and are on
[00:07:57] the verge of finalizing our discussions with
[00:08:00] Oman.
[00:08:04] And I would add that an oil slick threatens Oman, it is notably Greenpeace which
[00:08:07] warns that a tanker damaged by explosions in early June would have spilled
[00:08:11] its cargo. A ship currently stranded according
[00:08:15] to satellite images on the south coast of the Sultanate, and then this
[00:08:19] night the Houthi rebels from Yemen claim to have attacked two Saudi
[00:08:22] tankers, and explosions were also heard in the
[00:08:26] Strait of Hormuz according to the British maritime agency. In the
[00:08:29] United States, in the primaries that are to determine the candidates for the November
[00:08:33] midterms, the surprise is Abdullah El Sayed, he is
[00:08:37] the one who will be the Democratic candidate for Michigan to retain the Senate
[00:08:40] seat, he is the one who is... doctor won against a more
[00:08:44] moderate candidate, he is part of the left wing of the party
[00:08:48] in the so-called progressive movement that notably brought Zohran Mamdani
[00:08:51] to power in New York a few months ago. Jules
[00:08:54] Boadeau.
[00:08:57] He wants to embody the democratic renewal. Abdul El
[00:09:00] Sayed, son of Egyptian immigrants, will represent
[00:09:03] the party in Michigan for a Senate seat after his victory in the
[00:09:07] primary.
[00:09:09] I want to express all the gratitude I feel for being able to
[00:09:13] participate in this beautiful democracy. My family immigrated
[00:09:17] from a place where there is no democracy, you simply cannot stand, as the great
[00:09:21] Muhammad Ali would say, we shook the
[00:09:23] world,
[00:09:25] shook the world, but especially the Democratic Party with
[00:09:29] a disruptive political line. Facing the
[00:09:32] centrist candidate Aillie Stevens, former advisor to
[00:09:35] Barack Obama, Abdul El Sayed campaigned against the influence of
[00:09:39] large donors and pro-Israel organizations in
[00:09:42] American politics, supported by so-called
[00:09:46] progressive figures like Bernie Sanders or Alexandria
[00:09:49] Ocasio-Cortez, he now wants to prove that a radical voice in the
[00:09:52] Democratic Party can block the MAGA Republicans.
[00:09:56] Donald Trump himself seemed to rejoice at this result.
[00:10:00] Great news for the Republican Party, the communist
[00:10:03] loser El Sayed who hates Jews and Israel won the Democratic
[00:10:07] primary. The crazy proposals of the idiotic Democrats
[00:10:11] will get even worse. But before facing Donald Trump's
[00:10:14] candidate, Abdul will have to unite his own
[00:10:18] party. The end of the primary was marked by personal
[00:10:21] attacks and a frontal opposition on the issue of support
[00:10:25] for Israel. After the announcement of his victory, the now
[00:10:28] Democratic candidate immediately called for
[00:10:31] unity.
[00:10:34] FIFA apologizes, it was a scandal these last few days after the disclosure of its
[00:10:38] commercial entity project, the International Football Federation
[00:10:42] recognizes errors after a crisis meeting of its governing
[00:10:45] council, an apology accompanied by a
[00:10:48] commitment to ensure that they do not happen again, as can be read in
[00:10:52] this press release. The board members... affirm
[00:10:55] in any case their full support for Gianni
[00:10:57] Infantino.
[00:11:01] In one week, the sun will disappear for a few
[00:11:04] moments, a solar eclipse that will be visible in France, we could
[00:11:08] observe it totally in a part of Spain, almost entirely in
[00:11:13] France. An exceptional but
[00:11:16] dangerous spectacle to observe with the naked eye, even for a few moments,
[00:11:20] know that. The only protection, special glasses
[00:11:23] meeting very strict standards. So how are they made, how
[00:11:27] to get them? Léticia
[00:11:28] Legendre,
[00:11:31] night, in broad daylight, as in
[00:11:33] 1999, with this twilight
[00:11:36] atmosphere, when the sun plays hide-and-seek with the moon,
[00:11:40] but to admire this eclipse, you still need to be well equipped with suitable
[00:11:44] glasses. You shouldn't look at the sun for too long anyway, so
[00:11:48] if you don't have the right glasses, you can really damage your eyes. In recent
[00:11:51] weeks, this Alsatian manufacturer has been multiplying deliveries
[00:11:55] of protective glasses, hundreds
[00:11:57] of thousands of pairs specially designed to observe this phenomenon
[00:12:01] as rare as spectacular, the
[00:12:04] moon passing between the Earth and the sun, preventing its
[00:12:07] light from reaching our planet, a spectacle to
[00:12:11] observe with opaque glasses, it is a filter
[00:12:15] that reflects the harmful rays of the sun
[00:12:18] outside and inside, the filter is black,
[00:12:21] it is a filter that restores the orange image of the sun.
[00:12:25] "These protective glasses meet precise standards and
[00:12:28] are delivered with a certificate of conformity. At this
[00:12:32] optician, already about fifty pairs sold at 3 €
[00:12:35] each. It's now or never because
[00:12:39] apparently there won't be another as complete
[00:12:42] for a while and perhaps it will be the
[00:12:46] last of our lives. In 1999 in France during
[00:12:49] the last total eclipse, some improvised by making
[00:12:53] makeshift glasses, which are to be banned because..." even partial sunlight can
[00:12:57] pass through the eye and burn the retina in a matter of
[00:13:00] seconds, a painless burn with sometimes irreversible
[00:13:03] consequences. The light ray from the sun will
[00:13:07] burn these fundamental cells, a black spot that
[00:13:10] is somewhat engraved in front of us, and
[00:13:13] except that this black spot no longer disappears and so when we look at people we no longer see
[00:13:17] their faces, we no longer see the center, we can no longer read,
[00:13:21] it is in Bayonne that the darkness will be the most significant, almost total.
[00:13:25] The spectacle will be visible throughout France, but one week before the big
[00:13:29] night, the General Directorate of Health is concerned about possible
[00:13:33] stock shortages of glasses to observe
[00:13:35] the eclipse, and this will therefore be on Wednesday, August 12,
[00:13:39] around
[00:13:43] following it, you can go to the website for more
[00:13:46] information and more deciphering still on the front page
[00:13:50] of France24.com, tonight, we come back to FIFA's
[00:13:53] apologies. It therefore recognizes errors after
[00:13:57] its project last week which had caused a reinforced
[00:14:00] scandal by its
[00:14:03] board of directors, so this is what you can
[00:14:06] read on France 24 as well as other news, thank you for following
[00:14:10] us, next appointment in about fifteen minutes.
[00:14:35] Social networks, video games, school
[00:14:38] work, screens are omnipresent in teenagers'
[00:14:41] lives, when I came home, all
[00:14:45] I wanted to do was go back to my phone or the
[00:14:49] PS5.
[00:14:51] Health professionals are increasingly warning about the teeth.
[00:14:56] The only valid comparison for me is alcohol or hard
[00:14:58] drugs, but how to face a system that encourages
[00:15:02] all digital, I brake, I brake, I
[00:15:05] brake, and and in front of me there is the school asking,
[00:15:09] between contradictory injunctions and tech lobbies, some
[00:15:13] parents and teachers have decided to
[00:15:15] resist.
[00:15:25] I like video games because well, it teaches me
[00:15:29] creativity, it can teach me a lot of things and
[00:15:32] everything.
[00:15:36] At 13, he is... 5th grade and like 9
[00:15:39] out of 10 children his age, he owns a
[00:15:42] smartphone.
[00:15:45] His thing is video games, free
[00:15:48] online games he played every day still a few
[00:15:52] months ago.
[00:15:56] When I got home, all I wanted to do was go back
[00:16:00] to my phone or the
[00:16:03] PS5, I really didn't want to do my homework.
[00:16:09] Uh, I really wanted to stay home all the time
[00:16:13] in my room locked up with the shutters
[00:16:16] closed, just playing Fortnite,
[00:16:20] Roblox, Minecraft, All-Star, all the
[00:16:22] games.
[00:16:25] Ryan became addicted in a few weeks. At
[00:16:28] the time, when there was no school, he
[00:16:31] sometimes spent 12 hours a day in front of a
[00:16:34] screen. His concentration decreased. His
[00:16:38] school results too, well he
[00:16:41] didn't go out, we didn't see him outside, he was always in his room, we didn't see him, he only came back to
[00:16:45] eat or play on the console in the main room, he had to
[00:16:48] complain, he had to take the phone and then when we took the phone, he went into his
[00:16:52] room and he was angry, he was angry and he made
[00:16:56] a mess in his room, almost turning everything upside down. I had
[00:17:00] a deep anger,
[00:17:03] very strong because well I wanted to play because it
[00:17:06] served me to... except that in the end it did the exact
[00:17:09] opposite. Ryan's parents then felt
[00:17:13] increasingly helpless. He wasn't my son
[00:17:16] anymore. It was complicated, we
[00:17:20] didn't know what to do with him anymore, at some point it was almost like saying, "Go ahead, look at your
[00:17:23] screens and leave us alone." We felt like we were bad parents
[00:17:27] too, well yeah sometimes we wondered what we had done wrong
[00:17:30] actually, what we were doing wrong for
[00:17:33] it to be like
[00:17:35] that.
[00:17:38] If Ryan and his parents speak in the past tense, it is because they have
[00:17:42] decided to seek help. Shall we
[00:17:44] go? In this medical
[00:17:47] center, Sabine Duflot receives
[00:17:51] teenagers addicted to screens one day
[00:17:53] a week.
[00:17:56] The first time we met was a month ago, and you
[00:18:00] had set up parental control, but he
[00:18:02] bypassed it, played around with it, well yes he managed
[00:18:05] it. You can find it easily, how to bypass parental
[00:18:09] control, it's all on YouTube, it's
[00:18:11] crazy.
[00:18:14] Here, 90% of patients are boys, average age
[00:18:18] 14, playing like Ryan, free
[00:18:21] online multiplayer video games, all these games have one thing
[00:18:25] in common, random
[00:18:27] rewards. Let's take a concrete example in
[00:18:31] Fortnite, the goal is to
[00:18:34] shoot others before they shoot you back...
[00:18:38] And when you move, you can come across good quality
[00:18:42] weapons on your path that allow you to defend yourself well or not, and
[00:18:45] that is totally random, and it's this
[00:18:48] randomness that creates addiction. The only comparison that seems
[00:18:52] valid to me is alcohol or hard drugs. For the
[00:18:55] psychologist, there is only one solution to get out of this
[00:18:59] addiction, abstinence from the
[00:19:01] PlayStation. If your child was 13 and you said, "He has a drinking problem, he
[00:19:05] drinks all the time, your... in the morning uh whisky
[00:19:09] in the afternoon," and I prescribed abstinence, you would
[00:19:12] find that normal, it's the only solution, well it's the same thing here.
[00:19:16] The first few days of abstinence are difficult for
[00:19:19] Ryan, but in a few weeks the method proves
[00:19:22] itself. I still feel that I really have this urge
[00:19:26] for screens, for video games, for everything,
[00:19:30] but I think now I really
[00:19:33] think more about my friends, about going out with them. Hello,
[00:19:37] before we didn't hear him, he would come in, he was on his phone in his room, so we didn't hear him, it's
[00:19:41] true that now he's a chatterbox, but well it's much more pleasant to hear him talk,
[00:19:45] discuss and all that.
[00:19:48] Today, in France, children get their first smartphone
[00:19:52] at the age of 9 on average,
[00:19:55] and spend more than 4 hours a day on a screen, outside school
[00:19:59] hours. Many health professionals
[00:20:02] warn about the risks to the mental and physical health of
[00:20:06] children and adolescents, deterioration of sleep
[00:20:10] quality, exposure to violent or pornographic
[00:20:14] content, stress, anxiety or
[00:20:18] attention.
[00:20:24] Faced with the danger, some parents have decided to unite not
[00:20:28] to equip their children with smartphones.
[00:20:31] Annelorbaille is one of the leaders of the pact, Grow Better Without
[00:20:35] Smartphones. The idea is that... that if your child's
[00:20:39] friends don't have smartphones, it will be
[00:20:42] much easier to resist because the argument of "but I'm the
[00:20:46] only one" will no longer hold. We discuss with
[00:20:50] the parents of their child's friends, three or four couples of parents, and we
[00:20:54] say, "Okay, here's the transition to 6th grade, which is a big
[00:20:57] milestone. Uh, we don't plan to give a smartphone, and what do you plan to do?"
[00:21:01] and so on, because that's what makes parents crack, it's the guilt of saying
[00:21:05] "my child will be the outcast, my child will be the only one, he will be
[00:21:08] completely
[00:21:09] isolated."
[00:21:14] I really don't want to have a child addicted to
[00:21:17] screens.
[00:21:20] She is one of those parents who have joined the
[00:21:22] pact. Her daughter Clémentine is in
[00:21:25] 4th grade.
[00:21:29] Clémentine's age or even her brothers and sisters
[00:21:33] who are in 6th grade and CM2, where in fact they no longer know how
[00:21:37] to play, nothing happens anymore, they don't have a moment of pause, they don't
[00:21:41] have, they don't have the overflowing creativity,
[00:21:45] the imagination, all the stories they can invent, all that, it doesn't
[00:21:48] exist. At almost 14 years old, Clémentine is an
[00:21:52] exception. Fortunately, two of her friends
[00:21:55] have, like her, a simple flip phone. I
[00:21:59] feel less alone, and and above all, we
[00:22:03] spend more time together, we exchange
[00:22:06] much more, we are not all on our phones watching
[00:22:10] videos and saying, "Oh, look at this, it's so good," and
[00:22:14] that's the only thing we talk about.
[00:22:18] Tell me, Klem."
[00:22:22] you are addicted to doing despite Clementine's good intentions and her parents' determination,
[00:22:25] it's difficult to escape screens. That
[00:22:29] day, the middle schooler had an assignment to do
[00:22:32] online, not only,
[00:22:34] comma, he doesn't believe
[00:22:37] me.
[00:22:40] It's not very fair because already the school at the beginning of the year
[00:22:44] told us that they were against screens
[00:22:47] and now they give us
[00:22:50] homework to do on screen, so it makes no
[00:22:54] sense. I brake, I brake, I brake, and and in front of me there's
[00:22:57] the school asking. So I understand that it's easier, but does
[00:23:01] easier mean better? I'm not sure actually. How
[00:23:05] to manage these contradictory injunctions? We
[00:23:10] National Education what solutions were envisioned so as
[00:23:13] not to oblige parents to equip their children
[00:23:16] with screens. We have not received a response.
[00:23:24] Since the start of the 2025 school year,
[00:23:26] smartphones have been banned in all middle schools, but this
[00:23:29] Parisian establishment has decided to go further. Students
[00:23:33] are not allowed to bring a smartphone, even turned off, in their
[00:23:36] bags and no longer have access to the school life software
[00:23:40] Pronote. No choice, they must now
[00:23:43] write their homework by hand, so take your agenda
[00:23:47] for Tuesday, April 7 to bring.
[00:23:52] the exercise book. It allows
[00:23:55] us to explain the homework we give more
[00:23:59] precisely, to have questions immediately that
[00:24:02] come back compared to what he notes, it makes the student
[00:24:06] more active, more aware of what he has to do or
[00:24:09] not to do. Sébastien Blondo is the principal of the
[00:24:13] middle school, he is the one who leads this
[00:24:15] experimentation.
[00:24:17] I asked for the installation of screens.
[00:24:20] Uh, and and on this screen we will have in fact the
[00:24:24] different information that we found on Pronote, for example, timetable
[00:24:28] changes, but it's true that at the beginning there were hiccups, I tell you right
[00:24:31] away because we had to get used to
[00:24:34] talking to the students, to communicating directly with them without going through
[00:24:38] the intermediary of Pronote. I
[00:24:41] just wanted to see with you, Sébastien Blondo has not only
[00:24:44] banned Pronote for students, he has also asked
[00:24:47] teachers not to give homework
[00:24:51] requiring a screen. The
[00:24:53] principle is very very simple, it is to explain to students and to
[00:24:57] parents that a child doesn't need a
[00:25:00] smartphone for school work, it's useless,
[00:25:03] so it's a blow, yes they can't
[00:25:06] watch online the video of the erupting volcano, it's
[00:25:10] it's a shame, I understand that well, the map given
[00:25:14] in color by the history and geography teacher will be in black and white because
[00:25:17] because it's the photocopy is in black and white.
[00:25:20] so we miss a lot of things, but
[00:25:22] no, the risks are too
[00:25:25] great,
[00:25:27] it's not a question of banning digital,
[00:25:31] here, computer rooms and tablets are
[00:25:33] available, but only under the supervision of a
[00:25:37] teacher. in my classes, I regularly use
[00:25:41] both websites, digital tools,
[00:25:45] artificial intelligence too, so we don't ban digital, but we supervise it and we
[00:25:49] take back control. compared to a somewhat wild use that had started to
[00:25:52] happen, if sixth graders are rather
[00:25:56] favorable, the older ones are grumbling,
[00:25:59] they are not happy, of course. because for them it's
[00:26:03] a ban, a ban, they don't
[00:26:06] like it, but in their interest, I think it's the best thing
[00:26:10] that could have happened to them because before it was just phones and when they are on their
[00:26:13] phones, it's social networks, it's snapchat, tiktok, and
[00:26:16] so on, and these are not social networks honestly that allow them to advance in their
[00:26:20] schooling. these experiments, supported by
[00:26:24] a handful of teachers and parents, are still marginal,
[00:26:27] but they reflect a common will: to allow
[00:26:31] teenagers to live their schooling without falling into
[00:26:34] the trap of all-
[00:26:35] digital.
