That’s because Cruz and her husband, actor Javier Bardem, are keeping their children, 10-year-old son Leo and 8-year-old daughter Luna, off social media.
Cruz said in an interview with “CBS Sunday Morning” that “There’s something that doesn’t make sense and it especially affects the younger generations.”
“I feel really bad for the kids who are in their teens now,” she said. “It almost [as] if the world is doing some kind of testing on them. “Oh, look what happens if you expose a 12-year-old to that much technology.”
The “Parallel Mother” star says she herself uses social media “very carefully” and says that when it comes to young people “There are no safeguards for them, for their brains.” are still developing and that affects how they see themselves, how things are related to bullying, a lot of things that weren’t the childhood we had.”
“No social media until at least 16,” she says.
