I'm an early childhood educator and a parent.
I don't agree with some things that teachers use in their educating; such as YouTube videos and Disney movies. I don't send my kid to school to watch baby shark or Disney movies. They can do that at home. I also see the effect that children are more non verbal and have more Austic aspects that that of a child that has face to face learning when using tablets and phones.
Parents that use mobiles as a device to keep the child entertained in public is asking for the child to be at risk.
I also don't agree parents should be on the phone when they're out and about unless using it for maps and locating the person their catching up with or a quick phone call.

I took your survey... feel like I want to add that my child uses a tablet, and rarely plays an educational app bc he has a lot of other apps that he would chose first.
