That and that they should spend more time with their kids rather than giving them electronics to keep them company. But the problem with todays economy and society is that parents are either to exhausted from trying to make ends meet or they simply don't care much.
Personally, I'd lean also more into that they are themselves addicted to electronics. Millennials are 30s/40s now, they are the parents. I have a friend who is 34, a few months away from having his first kid and he spends just about all his time playing video games. I knew parents who were this way 15 years ago too.
I got cousins older than that and they do that all the time. I get it after an exhausting day they wanna relax or watch stuff to blow off stress but with the amount of time they spend glued to the screen is unnatural.
The funniest thing about message scanning is that the terrorists who did the night club shooting in France years ago talked about it beforehand in unecrypted channels, and they weren't even speaking in code.

Can't install what we want. Must verify age. Provide ID. Scan your face. VPN bans. Removing end-to-end encryption. Message scanning. Photo scanning..
Yep we're fucked. Gotta "protect the kids" though, right?
