Yes, because the average age of first exposure to porn is around 8 now.

Taking a scale from 1-100%, I think we should be 30% worried, it is an amoral situation, where children gain and lose basic tools for their future.

No, not at all. As long as they are busy and we do not have to play with them or go to the park, everything is fine.

The problem is the parents’ responsibility. It's up to them to establish a framework. Have they forgotten?

The problem lies with the parents. It's up to them to put a frame. Have they forgotten?

It’s Faltu of persents because they find it easy to get phone to child rather then giving time

Yes, would be interesting to know how they perceive other people after reading about them online.

Uh..yes?

Yes, this will contribute to Childhood obesity and the nearsightedness epidemic.

Yes, where have our books gone to ?

Their formative years are independant of socializing with others. Intuitively it feels wrong, would be interesting to see research over time

No, we should deprive children of the resources they need to learn and function in a modern society. And while we are at it, keep them away from TV and books. And human interaction.

Why is the word 'necessarily' in there? Children vitally need to interact with real things and real people. Teenagers and adults got their chance. Children deserve the chance to know what they're throwing away.

it's actually like being in the library for some depending on what they ate doing

Children should not be on the internet ever.

yes. by miles.

Depends if they are reading drivel off sites like the guardian.
