Phone Addiction & Mental Health Crisis Among Kids

Some kids are getting addicted to their phones, like they would to drugs.

This can lead to big problems, like feeling angry, sad, or even wanting to hurt themselves.

Experts say too much screen time can make kids feel bad, and feeling bad makes them use their phones more.

If parents aren't careful, kids might watch things that are harmful or spend too much time online.

To help, parents should talk to their kids, set limits on phone use, and help them deal with their feelings.

It's important for kids to feel safe and loved so they don't turn to their phones for comfort.
