Screen Time Surge

Kids aged 8 to 18 are averaging a staggering seven and a half hours of screen time daily, with those between 11 and 14 clocking in at nearly nine hours. The pandemic has exacerbated this issue, combining school and home screen usage, leading to some children potentially spending up to 13 hours a day on screens. While awareness of the problem has increased, the rapid rise in screen time presents significant challenges for parents and educators alike.
