Goldie Hawn: Grit Starts with Real Play, Not Pixels

0:00It's May 3rd. From Hollywood to your headphones, this is Entertainment and celebrity news today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Goldie Hahn says kids today are missing that real grit because screens keep them from solving problems on their own. Back when she was young, children roamed free in groups, figuring things out without adults watching every move. Now, too much tech time means less hands-on adventure and teamwork. For 20 years ago, Hahn launched her Mind Up program after spotting a mental health crisis in kids. Suicide had become the third leading cause of death for 10 to 15-year-olds, and she notes it's even worse today. She wanted children to feel more joy and handle their emotions better. Hahn pushes against overprotecting kids, calling it cuddling. She believes they build strength by struggling and not always getting what they want. For example, she let her daughter mix and match old clothes instead of buying new ones every time she grew. On the acting front, Hahn earned an Emmy from Rowan and Martin's laugh, and an Oscar

Six years without a new movie, but Hahn's game, if a sharp, funny script comes along. Her take reminds us grid starts with real-world play, not just pixels.
