Summary | Philippe Brenot has been studying people's ways of sharing love for more than thirty years. He noticed some gender differences; for instance, women like to save love letters close to themselves whereas men save theirs in binders. Moreover, women don't write about their lover's body, whereas descriptions of female bodies are omnipresent in men's letters. However, in text messages, women are more likely to be straightforward. Brenot claims that love letters are not disappearing with new technologies. People still send each other love messages and save them.

"Le petit enfant cherche avant tout la relation"

Summary | A psychiatrist talks about the relationship between children and screens. Before 3 years old, adults should always be there and should only use screens on a short period of time, to entertain. But it is important to also use traditional toys so that children do not think their parents only think of digital devices. Moreover, it is important to have rules: no tablet during dinner, nor to calm down a child. Also, tablets should not be used at night because of the light. Smartphones should only be used by parents; children should not use them to play.
