Do phones eat dinner with us now? A new JAMA study says yes. At family meals, most parents and many children used screens, like phones or TV. Researchers say these screens can stop talk. (jamanetwork.com)
Think of one family. Soup is hot. Mom looks down. Dad taps his phone. The boy says, “I made a star today.” No one answers.
But then Dad puts it away. Mom looks up. “A star? Show me later.” The table feels warm again.
The AAP says: keep the table screen-free. Small rule, big talk. (healthychildren.org)
