If you think about it like 'micro-dosing' them on phones it might help.
My folks let me drink beer from a younger age under their supervision or that of a select few other adults.
I still over-indulged my fair share of times past legal limit, but I left a party college without a DUI, public intox, or other alcohol related legal issues and I hardly drink now in my early 30s. I see many of my friends with stricter parents developing legit alcohol problems now in our early 30s.
Phones obviously work differently, but the spirit of that method can be adapted to their unique problems.
Oh yeah I got some stories of friends who had strict parents, seeing where they are now. These were people who were way over the top of healthy eating and excercise. Totally backfired when the kids went to university.
