During an appearance on the Him & Her Podcast, parenting expert Dr. Becky Kennedy emphasized the importance of not using screens at the dinner table, suggesting it creates a negative long-term behavior, stating, 'I think it's a selfish thing that parents do personally.' He explained that by allowing screens, parents may be prioritizing their own convenience over teaching their children essential life skills.
Dr. Becky further elaborated that, 'I feel like what I'm saying to my kids is the world is not entirely for optimized for your pleasure.' She believes that enduring moments without entertainment, such as waiting at a restaurant, fosters important life skills necessary for adulthood.
