Babes I’m not raising a child on screen time. You’re basically neglecting your duties of being a parent. Children need to be bored to become creative. Throwing them an iPad isn’t going to help. Then they get attached to it and start crying when they can’t get it. No children need toys and going outside. They need to psychically see what they’re learning.
Once they turn about 14 then they can get a phone but that’s only for emergency purposes when they go to school. Even then they don’t need a fancy phone a flip phone will do. If they want friends they need to go out and make them. They want to communicate with them go out and do it. Want to hang out you need to psychically invite them over.
