Well no shit. But still. Social media is fucking toxic and so is letting your tablet/cellphone take care of your kid because you can't be bothered. It's also toxic to try to bubble wrap your kids entire life and to control everything they do/see/think. Either way, the parents are at fault in both of these cases.

The problem with this narrative is that there’s basically no real evidence to support it. As the American Psychological Association found when it reviewed all the literature, despite many, many dozens of studies done on the impact of social media on kids, no one was able to establish a causal relationship. As that report noted, the research seemed to show no inherent benefit or harm for most kids. For some, it showed a real benefit (often around kids being able to find like-minded people online to communicate with). For a very small percentage, it appeared to potentially exacerbate existing issues. And those are really the cases that we should be focused on."
