> Honest question, what are kids supposed to do all day? We're taking away social media but it's not like we're rebuilding anything.

The worry that kids have nothing to do at all except social media means things went really bad. They can do all the things kids did before social media. Literally all of them are available and present in their rooms and outside.

>Today's kids are discouraged from walking around unsupervised, discouraged from partying together,

Not true in France.

> discouraged from fighting and pranks.

As they should be.

> Phone-free lifestyles require a society-wide infrastructure, and we don't have that.

We literally have that.
