give their kids a phone to surf during that meeting.

The tail is wagging the dog out there. I understand the pressure kids are putting on their parents, but I fear for our future with a continuation of the thought that kids need to be entertained continually and that is achieved by electronics.

I made it though raising my kids before this became the problem it is currently and my heart aches for today's parents, but yes, there should be guidelines or a kid is going to continue to be engulfed. Not their fault.
