I genuinely believe that if we want kids to have some normalcy here we need to flat out ban smartphone for kids up to say 16-18 years old and instead dumb phones should be the norm instead.

Because it's not just social media, it's the entire 24/7 jumping around different apps all the time that is screwing them up.

Before kids would get bored playing video games and then instead wanting to go out and play.

Now it's going from one app to another once they are bored.
