My daughter is still very young but I’m seeing other families give their kids tablets and phones to play with at as young as five years old. We don’t allow any screen time but I know that as time passes it will be increasingly hard to hold her back.
My nephew plays COD. He is 8. He sleeps with his iPad.
The nieces are are 6 and 11. They are obsessed with tiktok.
My son is 7 and goes to school with kids that have iPhones.
And my son only watches screens when we are supervising. He watches a lot of TV and plays Switch games though. Never phones and we don’t have a tablet or any of the streaming stuff.
