I’ve no kids of my own. This is mostly about my experience. I grew up with tv, internet, and video games. I used to have a portable screen that played dvds and a music cd player. I grew up watching cartoons on satellite then cable TV. I played on the ps1, ps2, PS3, and psp. I surfed the web on desktop computers, my folks used to have an old Compaq then later an HP Pavillion. I didn’t have an actual smartphone till mid way through middle school. My folks limited my screen time.
My little brother on the other hand has been glued to his tablet since age 3. My folks limit his time, but his tablet is all he’s ever known and he’s inseparable from it. I didn’t really start getting sucked into tech and screens till age 10 when I got my first PS3 and even then I was pretty well rounded.
