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.
I mean these people exist too. I worked for that lady who was probably around 40, but she really tried hard to be 25 or so. She had like 5 girls at home, not all hers. All the pictures on their walls had a super weird filter on. If you like that, more power to you. But tge way she talked about social media and screens in general was just downright weird as fuck. She was really proud that all her girls already had an instagram account, because when they are old enough, the good handles would be already gone. They practiced posing for the camera at home, and she was weirdly proud to not have books at home, because they all had tablets and you don’t need books when youtube exists. I didn’t even want to know ANY of this, ahe told me that like ahe was mother of the century. When she eventually asked me for my Instagram, to get her kids some followers i told her i don’t do social media, i find it dumb and creepy.
I remember all the years of people saying that Idiocracy isn’t a documentary sent from the future as a warning to us all. Look where their smug bullshit got us.
Clearly Idiocracy is a fan made movie about the simulation that is our reality being run as a satire of a much less poetically fucked up Earth in the far future that was accidentally leaked into the past!
No, it was a real life documentary that somehow had parts recorded before he got frozed for so long and then at the end they found the real time macheen and used it to send it back to let us know. Duh.
That is what I am saying, but they messed up and accidentally sent it back in time to the satire simulation, not reality!
Wait, none of this is real? Thank God. I always sort of thought I was the only real person since I can’t hear no one else thinking. Now that you let me know I’m right I’m gonna go live out that dream I had last night where someone drove past a cop and I smashed him in the head with something. The dream must have been trying to tell me none of this is real and it’s ok to do that, like in Vanilla Sky.
No don’t do that, it will be bad for your credit score.
lol, I don’t need no credits for satirical simulated food anyhow. The Matrix was right. Free your mind. I AM a magic wizard.
and I am a bowl of petunias!
