If you put kids in them 8 hours a day, it would be a concern (although I don't think there is substantive evidence either way yet). I think there's a safe middle ground where using something like this for up to couple of hours in a day at most is very unlikely to have any significant effect. It's just not enough fraction of the time to cause a major impact, especially older kids (teens).
- beart 2y agoI don't know, that seems like a lot of assumptions about an unproven technology.
- zmmmmm 2y agowe are already several years into millions of kids using VR headsets. I would say it may not be "proven" but it's also well beyond completely "unproven" in that if there were major effects we would definitely be seeing them organically by now.

- blackoil 2y agoIt is known pretty early on Cigarettes are harmful, we just ignored it because.
- Tepix 2y agoThat's why Meta tells users not to let children below 10 years use their headsets. And those between 10 and 12 should not use it for more than 2 hours per day.
