A new study has looked into families' attitudes to screen time and smartphone use, and it turns out both teens and their parents are divided on the issues.
Screen time is a common concern among modern parents, as research has found that two-thirds of parents notice its negative effects on their children. Whether it's harmful content on social media or nomophobia (fear of being without a mobile phone), there are a number of ways too much time online can be damaging. But it's important to remember that screens aren't the enemy - there are benefits too, including educational resources and their ability to teach kids responsibility.
