Anecdotal evidence but I saw one parent say their 9 year old dgif and immediately asked them to play outside with them; which they rarely did prior.

Kids want attention, thats why social media is so dangerous for them; they're sitting ducks for predators.

I work with kids and except for legit ipad babies, kids treat cellphones like a backup when there's nothing better to do... they prefer playing games with other kids or engaging their parents/role-models.

I personally see zero downsides to this. I genuinely hope Canada follows suite.
