What is it like where you are? Are young kids on phones all the time from babies? Has their behaviour changed in anyway compared to when you were a kid?

It is the same here. The majority of the Gen Z parent expose their kids to the phone at an early stage, and this often reduce their appetite to food and even prevent them from doing something meaningful at all. I have witnessed a kid whose phone was taken from her and refused to eat for the whole day until the phone was given back. It is a shame. We believe we are exposing them to technology at early stage, but it doesn't make much sense.
If my daughter did that, she wouldn't get the phone back for a week.
It is a shame that we have created a society that devalues human experience for profit.
The way the kid was doing is what prompted the parent to return the phone.
