Yes I'm being a little lazy, but I'm not a research scientist. Gooogling some thing like "mental illness social media" is pretty easy. There's lots of studies finding at least a little corelation.
I'm not shocked your linked study says that there is very little evidence of social media causing mental health issues. I wouldn't even be shocked if it's true.
It still doesn't mean that good parenting and social media access go hand in hand.
Just trying to have a conversation and not get a PhD in the process.
