[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Biking is better than Netflix which is better than video games which might be better than cell phones for 11 and 12 yo’s. Depends on the game and the kid. [/quote] [b]And biking is literally the #1 cause of concussion and head injury in kids. [/b] Everything has risks and rewards. Netflix can be super-addictive. Video gaming is at least active whereas binge-watching shows is passive. Cell phone are tools. My kid uses hers for audible and kindle, texting (lots of rules about that,) managing her calendar, chore-tracking, and a few other things. Phones -- personal, portable networked computers! -- are incredibly powerful tools. That power should be respected, and they should be used with care. [/quote] LOL. Wow. Just, wow.[/quote]
