eh. I was raised watching the iphones go from 1 to 15 while the numbers kinda lined up with my grade levels, so for context I feel like I've seen both sides of the coin when it comes to kids & phones.
I believe in what you're saying, to an extent, and even am grinding my schoolwork with a flip phone, but at this point I think the onus is on the parents to encourage productive habits and make the kid understand WHY the addictiveness is so implicit and dangerous.
if you don't have anything to replace the scrolling with, you will return to scrolling.
best of luck with the kids, imho meditation worked best for me kicking my phone addiction
