[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really believe screens are killing child hood and damaging kids.  Just like anything - moderation is the key.  Screens are addictive- so parents need to enforce moderation.  [/quote]

Screens are addictive for EVERYONE.  It's adults too.  I know I need to put my damn phone down in front of my kids too sometimes.[/quote]

I agree, screens destroyed childhood. Before anyone says anything, yes, I know we had TV and video games, and yes, at time we spent too much time on them, but not like today. We had a much better balance imo.[/quote]

They've also destroyed adulthood.  We're all phone zombies now.

When we were kids we had unlimited TV in summers, but there was a natural limit because at some point there would be nothing good on TV.  Not so with netflix, prime video, youtube.  Entertainment options never end.[/quote]

Totally agree with how screentime now is a different ballgame than TV 20 years ago.

TV was also more social because there was usually just 1 or 2 in the house. So kids would watch together at least rather than everyone on their own devices. And then there is some interaction just naturally.[/quote]
