I was talking to someone the other day about how hard it would be to raise kids with technology. Do you take the slot machine out of their pockets until they're some arbitrary age? Will the good that does outweigh the harm of not being as socially connected as their peers?
The return of dumbphones might be a solution, but smartphones do so much (think GPS) and are required for so much that this has its own problems.
I am childfree but a lot of my close friends have kids now, and this is a huge topic of conversation for all of them. Working out how much time they spend on devices, what they do on the devices, etc. They don't want to segregate their kids from learning important technologies at a young age, but neither do they want their kids to be online 24/7. I honestly don't envy the situation.
I think these restrictions are honestly a pretty good baseline guideline.
