Cool moral panic anecdote

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

The negative impact a lot of screen time has on kids is very well documented. Basically, even educational shows do basically nothing for young kids. It's passive and doesn't help development in any way. Kids benefit a lot more from active exploration, play, and socialization.

"Moral panic" is a phrase reserved for complaints that have no basis in reality.
