The negative effects of increasing the frequency of digital device use have long been scientifically proven.

Recently, it has become commonplace in restaurants around the world to see parents and children fiddling around on their smartphones without even talking to them.

Eating at the “silent family table” without focusing on either the child or the food.
It’s so sad that this has become the norm in today’s world.

Time with our children is limited.
A smartphone can’t cover what parents can give to their children during that time.

I know it’s easy. But the cost to children is really high. Not just brain damage, but emotional damage too.

I think families should consciously take time to concentrate on something other than their smartphones.
Parents have a stronger influence than you think. Seriously.
When your children grow up and think back on meals with you,
it won’t be so sad if all they remember is fiddling with their smartphones, right?
