Good point. Of course we know better; it's not the phone itself that harms mental health but the addictive apps and surveillance networks DataFarmers are allowed to deliver *using* the phone. See the recent announcement by Goggle that they plan to force everyone with an account to supply a bunch of personal information, then *publish* it 🤦‍♂️

All very valid points.

I would also say, from my limited observations, that this 9yo was more distracted by having alerts appearing or texts or whatever they were, than any of their peers without a smart watch. This student also has a pattern of being distracted... so who really knows!?
