This episode of the BBC World Service programme Tech Life, titled "Too young to scroll?", examines the question of what age is appropriate for a child to be given a smartphone. It focuses on the town of Greystones in Ireland, where the community has adopted a voluntary agreement to hold off giving children smartphones until they reach secondary school age, an approach that speaks to wider parental and societal concerns about children's screen use.

The programme features contributions from the school principal leading the "It Takes A Village" initiative and a local parent. The episode, presented by Shiona McCallum and produced by Tom Quinn, also covers a woman who developed a wearable safety device after surviving a late-night attack, and an experiment in which artificial intelligence was set loose to run a café in Sweden.
