[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our entire society is screen addicted. So yeah, most kids are too. You can’t fix systemic issues at an individual level, but that’s what parents are told to do, over and over. Also, the culture of intensive parenting is incredibly wearing. Parents use screens for a break, which makes the kids less tolerant of boredom. Vicious cycle. We should start by rejecting intensive parenting, not screens. [/quote] Ridiculous [/quote] Actually I agree with PP. This is spot on. Parents think they need to be engaging their child at all times. As a result, kids don’t know how to be bored or find things for themselves to do. And because it isn’t possible to engage with your child at all times during waking hours, parents turn to screens.
