Heard a v v interesting article on car-radio ystdy. Talking about research around toddler interaction with parents who are constantly on phones.
Kids are picking up behaviour damaging to their pysch-social development. Parents arent making eye contact or connecting with smiles and voice as in previous generations. Toddlers arent learning language as quickly.

Aĺl bc parents are more interested in scrolling through memes on tiktok that theyll forget by tomorrow.

And its not just kids. Saw two couples in a restaurant last night. Not talking. Both on phones.
Crazy.

Put the fcking phones in a drawer.
Please.
If only we could turn back time and never have smartphones.
