I like the alcohol comparison it's interesting in how accurate it is and yet society does it.

I also think it's obvious your comparisons of parents limiting time of things like this in the 90s is not apples to apples.

Being the person to start a new trend (in your local bubble) is non-trivial and hard to explain to a child growing up around nearly all their peers having access.

Doubly so if it's something that (I think science supports this?) is far more addicting than it was in the past.

I'm not saying folks get a free pass but I'm not sure we had a global drug crisis that 90% of the population was participating in before which from your analogy is what's happening.

Thanks again for the alcohol comparison I'm going to phrase it like that in my head to hopefully get all of my brain on board with the seriousness of the topic for my kids :)
