The Swedish Liberals´ Johan Pehrson has once again highlighted the importance and responsibility of parents in children´s development in his speech in Almadalen.
Pehrson especially focused on the father´s role in the child´s life; “I think Sweden would do well with a little more father anxiety. We need more adult men who take greater responsibility for their children´s upbringing.”
In the same week of June, the Liberal Party launched a proposal for a parental contract , for students at risk of failing primary school. This is a contract where the parents undertake to set limits and set rules for the child´s homework, sleep, free time and screen habits.”
Pehrson emphasised the importance of technology in children´s upbringing, stating that the Party has developed proposals for tech companies and the internet giants to take greater responsibility for children s vulnerability online.
We need to see a new public education movement rise against the eternal scrolling by the screen, he argued, determined to change the current habits of children.
