Regardless of the content on the screen, the screen time is bad for kids. Even desiring pixel-represented "data" for this fact that is obviously observable irl is itself perhaps a result of excessive screen-time, leading to spreadsheet brain, but I can gratify you with these studies: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] Of course, no study will exactly disprove the claim that there is some possible content that is a net positive for kids, akin to how no study can prove that unicorns don't exist. But this is exactly the kind of brain-melt, culturally destructive kind of thinking you could expect for demanding "data" for every obvious fact. Screen time is simply bad for kids. Don't give your kids a screen. Give them a ball, a stick, a book, etc [1] https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/fullarticle/2808593 https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/fullarticle/...
