This tracks with my son’s observations on my wife’s phone use. She’ll tell him to stop watching youtube, then go right back to doing so herself. It doesn’t really seem to compute how hypocritical that is.

Changing habits is hard enough on it's own.parenthood and modern life makes that even more difficult

About as much as telling your kid to not drink beer while you are doing it yourself.
Phone addiction is harmful to everyone at all age groups. It's not really the individuals to blame through. The tech companies have broken human psychology and developed something more addictive than drugs.

Wyh can't it be something like I don't want you to end up like me? I don't think it's hypocritical Changing habits is hard enough on it's own.parenthood and modern life makes that even more difficult
I seriously, I feel like so many people just somehow magically forget their entire childhoods, maybe selectively?
I lack the ability to lie to myself like that unfortunately

this is what naive adults think, don't you remember how it was when you were a kid? I seriously, I feel like so many people just somehow magically forget their entire childhoods, maybe selectively? I lack the ability to lie to myself like that unfortunately
a solipsistic viewpoint I suppose.

This is a weak study that is exemplary of psychology's weak experimentation culture and correlation/causation laundering, especially with regard to self-report. The heavily hinted implication is that device use damages relationships. But look at what they actually measured. They ask adolescents to answer questions like: "My primary caregiver ignores me when they are on a device." (DAIS, their new scale) And then also…
I largely agree this is a weak study, but it also feels like no matter how you run this study it's going to be flawed. Parent-child interactions, relationships, feelings are probably the hardest thing to quantify at any scale. In the end, it's really, "Pay more attention to your kids", which is a pretty good universal message to put across.
I think weak studies validating people's natural intuitions tend to do more damage than we give them credit for. Even if another better d signed study does way more work and comes with clear results that disprove the natural intuiton, it will be buried in the sea of low effort studies and people will already have settle the issue in their minds as "proven by science".

I have no idea what your trying to say or what point you're trying to make.
