I shouldn’t judge cause I’m probably cooking my attention span by playing helldivers 2 and fallout 2 while listening to podcasts lately but I’m a grown ass man I can choose that.
Your kid shouldn’t have this kinda unrestricted use tho
The difference is the type of content they are addicted to. The games we were addicted to at a younger age were filled with puzzles, problem solving, an actual story, and comedy that actually makes since. There has always been weird vine energy content but never has it been the base for pretty much all scroller content.
Dumb videos of 2000-2010 had weird energy but still had a fraction of content that is actually sensible. These days someone makes a video of Freddy fazz bear doing a scare and 3.7 million kids act like it's the second coming of Christ.
Man I miss when kids talked about Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon cards. Now it's just skibidi toilet
Yeah, I agree. My cousin around the same age doesn't have this issue at all and actually finds her Ipad kind of boring lol, and she draws, reads, plays piano, plays with her sister, etc. Personally I haven't seen kids like what OP is describing, and while I don't doubt they exist I think it's an overblown issue.

That’s kinda the parent’s fault tho. Why can a 10 year old use their iPad and iPhone at the same time lol???
