Research links parental stress to increased child screen time

A recent study from Florida International University involving 822 caregivers indicates that the stress levels of parents can impact how much time children spend on screens. The findings show that parents dealing with significant emotional pressure often struggle to enforce consistent screen-time limits. Additionally, those finding it difficult to manage their children's behavior are more inclined to rely on digital devices to keep them quiet or busy. The study authors recommend that parents prioritize the quality of content, establish regular routines, and focus on supporting healthy growth.
