hot take!
but limiting your child's screen time will only make your child more addicted to screens
if you put a limit to your kids screen time it will make them spend less time on it while the limit is on
but when you eventually remove the limit when they get older they will abuse this unlimited time they have bc they're not used to it
and they will spend 10h+ infront of screens bc they feel free now
but if they don't have a screen time, they will already be used to having unlimited time
and they will get better at controlling themselves and how much time they spend on their phone
ofc every kid is diffrent
and it might be complite opposite to some, but this is how I view it
Xanny's gone, carry on!
