So it talks about smartphones but all the drawbacks seem caused by social media.
What is the problem with smartphones for (somewhat sensible) games, looking at family photos, and watching pre-downloaded fairy tales? (no YouTube with its toxic recommendations!)
- spicyusername 3y agoThis is my parenting philosophy. I let my children use my old smartphones in very limited ways for tasks I consider beneficial. Listening to podcasts made for children before bed. Listening to music. Sending monitored discord messages to their cousins. Using a toothbrushing app. Etc. Typically no more than an hour or so a day. My hope is that this teaches them how to use the technology in helpful ways, and this time typically replaces time spent passively watching TV.
