🚨🇺🇸DUH... SMARTPHONES MAKE KIDS MISERABLE | MASSIVE GLOBAL STUDY

Researchers studied nearly 2 million people across 160 countries and found that giving a kid a smartphone before age 13 wrecks their mental health.

Girls who got phones at age 5 were 20% more likely to report suicidal thoughts later in life than those who waited until age 13.

Early users also reported hallucinations, aggression, and feeling detached from reality - all before they hit college.

Study says phones crush confidence, empathy, and emotional stability.

So yeah… maybe hold off on that iPhone for your 8-year-old.

I could’ve told you that without conducting a “massive global study”

Doesn’t this also mean it’s wrecking our mental health?
