    Are you sure it didn’t have any effect? I have seen some kids who wouldn’t put their phone away when they are walking, when they are talking to others , etc. Their attention span is so low they cant even concentrate.

    Also the dangers of the internet and what stuff you can find. I will give them a phone when they are old enough to understand that. Maybe 15 -16

      Yes, I’m sure. This is a tale as old as time.

      Same was said of newspapers. Same was said of television. Same was said of videogames. Same was said of the internet.

      Humans get new tool. Old people who grew up without tool look down on young for overusing tool.
