[quote=Anonymous]This is something I think about often. I would never say anything or act rudely toward a parent that chooses to allow a young child to use a phone in that way, but I do wonder on the inside what the effects of this will be. At my daughters gymnastics practice and soccer games I see children as young as 1.5 on devices sitting slumped over the chair/ground staring at them for prolonged periods. In restaurants, children are zoned out watching their devices. I think this is an interesting discussion to have but would require both sides to be non-judge mental and not easily offended. Btw, I also agree that adults have issues with phone dependency and also see it all the time in restaurants. [/quote]
