"So everyone comes in and has their own tablet, mind you, not saying a word, this family, okay?"
"And I'm immediately like, My God, I'm judgmental basically, and this reinforces the thought that I already have, which is if you are a parent ... and you want to raise your kids with iPads, I, in the kindest way possible, do not want to be friends with you."
"what people don't understand is that their kids are hard to handle BECAUSE they have so much screen time. Screens are addictive. The kids are freaking out. It's ruining their nervous system,"
A father observed a family of five where each child used a tablet during dinner at McDonald's and declared he does not want to be friends with parents who raise "iPad kids." He argued that parents who rely on tablets have different life views and called that approach "borderline abusive," noting a nearby playground and suggesting parents should encourage play instead of screens. He warned about young children having full internet access on devices. Reactions were mixed: some agreed screens are addictive and harm children's nervous systems, while others urged parents to engage children by talking or coloring.
