Most research on kids’ screen time has focused on a child’s behavior. Far less attention has gone to parents and their role in their children’s media use.

While research on children’s screen use is growing, most of it has focused on how a child’s behavior and temperament influence how much time they spend on screens.

Yet far less attention has gone to parents’ role in children’s media use.

In 2024, the U.S. surgeon general identified parenting stress as a public health concern.

Researchers, clinicians and policymakers were called to action to better understand parents’ needs, with the goal of supporting them in raising children and maintaining a healthy family.

    Hey. Not everyone had/has the same experience as you.

    More than you think.

    I get that you’re angry but stop purity testing the entire planet because you had a bad time.

    Stop normalizing child abuse, selfish dipshit.

    “Every person who doesn’t agree with me supports child abuse”

    Not what I said. Every person who abuses children is a child abuser. It is more common than you think.

    sounds a lot like, “every black person is a criminal”

    Not at all. Parents choose to have children. No one chooses to be black. What a disgusting false equivalence.

    or “every gay person has AIDS”.

    Wow, you one-upped yourself. When any person, gay or not, contracts AIDS, they have to deal with that themselves. They are suffering for their choices.

    When parents choose to have children they can’t care for, the children suffer for choices they did not make and cannot correct.

    Don’t let your trauma turn you into the people who hurt you.

    Don’t let your selfish idiocy blind you to real problems.

    Abuse has been normalized.

    Oppose it or die, thanks.
