> There has been growing concern that toddler touchscreen use may negatively impact their developing attention but this fear is not based on empirical evidence.” That isn’t surprising to me: there are no inherent properties attached to a touch screen that would affect attention. But there are plenty of fast paced games and videos that could, and those tend to be viewed through touch screens. So I still wonder about that (though it’s not all that different to watching too much TV, something people have discussed for decades now)
