Stressed parents more likely to share screen devices with their children, study finds
Stressed parents are more likely to give screen devices to their children, which can increase the risk of overuse, according to new research. The findings also suggest that parents’ knowledge of recommended screen time limits for preschoolers has little impact on actual practices.
