Most won't. Call it lack of time or attention, ignorance of the problem, apathy... ultimately parents can't be aware of everything. We have shit like micro plastics in the water to contend with.
What's the effect on society?
- hotnfresh 3y agoEvery time you stack on more crap to worry about, more parents will fail to do the right thing. That’s just how life is. Policing electronics and internet access is a huge pain in the ass that wasn’t a concern at all, not that long ago, and more-recently was a ton easier than it is now. I don’t even control all the devices in my house, some belong to the kids’ schools that for some reason won’t stop giving them goddamn computers. I can solve these problems but it’s a big pain, and most parents realistically cannot. It doesn’t help that all parental controls are pretty bad, usually for no good reason.
- Damogran6 3y agoIt's an easy statement to make: "Parents take care of your kids" Which is interestingly subverted by "Can't raise my kids if we don't have enough money to eat" leading to both parents working, sometimes multiple jobs, and the kids left to their own devices/daycare The older I get, the more I'm reminded pat/easy/black and white solutions just flat don't exist.
