A short YouTube clip (uploaded March 21, 2024) featuring Devorah Heitner describing her research into teenage reputation and surveillance. She notes that while peers surveil each other, adults also heavily monitor kids using location trackers (e.g., Life360) and apps that let parents see grades and teachers' posts, creating a complex landscape for adolescents growing up in public.

Chapters

So I started researching that, talking with teenagers about reputation. And I thought, okay, there's a book here. Kids are growing up in public. There's a story to tell. And one of the things I realized is that adults are actually surveilling kids too. It's not just kids surveilling one another. Adults are tracking the heck out of their kids with location tracking, you know, Life360, we're tracking our kids grades. We have all these apps where we can see our kids grades and seconds of the teacher is posting, we can see it. So all of that creates a complicated landscape that I think we need to understand better.
