    I think kids shouldn’t have smart phones at all. Banning from social media is the wrong way to handle it. Parent’s need to be held accountable for allowing their kids to have too much phone time. It rots the brain. There are way too many kids that can’t read, do basic math, or do anything by themselves without the help of AI. It’s ridiculous.

      Smart phones are by them self fine. It’s no different then when we were kids with a gameboy and a cheap prepaid flip phone

      Like what’s actually fucking the problem with smart phones? It’s a camera phone and Gameboy all in one. There’s nothing inherently problematic with that

      Every problem people always bitch about are various apps and companies and have absolutely fucking shit and all to do inherently with the phone it self.

      Proper parenting, and bitch slapping the dipshits companies shoving additive and invasive software at kids is the solution.

      Not getting rid of a useful tool that kids should learn to properly utilize and one of the single largest tools of safety for kids.
