I set expectations when she saved up and got the phone – little did I know it would undermine them, and her mental health

I think its not just kids anymore, it’s adults too. Everyone is glued to their screens these days. But kids are more vulnerable to influences from “social” media and don’t have any defences to the psychological warfare going on. Of course they feel like shit.

    Maybe people feel like shit cause the planet is being destroyed by a bunch of rich assholes?

    I don’t think banning this knowledge from kids is going to help.

      Kids are not looking for that knowledge, I think you know that. Planet is being destroyed, yes, but nothing you can do about it by using your phone.
